You know what, Bruce? This is such a good question that I am, as we speak,
downloading OpenOffice. I'm the sole tech writer at my little start up (it's
good to be the queen) and I think I can get away with trying it out. We
write software on the Linux platform, so "open source" is not a Bad Thing
around here. Thanks for bringing up the subject. I'll let you know how it
goes.
