I want to know why are people using wp and/or oo and what the pro's and con's are...
In my opinion, in the first place it's the same sort of question as: why does one person prefer the Beatles and the other one the Rolling Stones? No one else can tell you which of the two you should prefer. Personally, though I do appreciate SO/OO, I'm a big WP fan! It would not be a bad idea to install them both. If one of the two misses something, the other one can come to the rescue. For example, OO is newer than WP2000 for Linux, and is therefore further developed in importing documents from people who have not discovered Linux yet, so to speak. On the other hand, WP2K4L comes with a thousand fonts (a few hundred "font families", that is) and a CD full of clipart, to name just something. And it's probably the most complete, feature-rich Linux app there is. SH
