[juneau-lug] OpenOffice

Just loaded a copy of Open Office, last week. I have used the newer versions of 
Star Office and like Open Office much better. I find it has all of the features 
that Office (M$)has and even some more. Also, unlike Star Office, it ditches 
the environment (which I hated anyways..always took up gobs of resources). 

One thing I haven't figured out is how to turn off the automatic indentations 
of numbering when you skip a number for example...

4.2.1
 4.2.4
4.3.1
4.3.2

besides that, works like a charm...only other bother is the saving feature, 
sometimes it will add a feature to your document and then give you the message 
that while you can save in Office2000/XP you will loose those special 
features...did it both ways, and all was good.

If anyone needs a copy of it (yes, I know it is only 50megs, but it took me 7 
downloads to get it, as there were problems with their server knocking me 
off)..I will happily mail to you from Jolly ol' Anchorage...would like to find 
a way to -pay- someone to ship me a copy of Red hat 7.3 and Suse 8.x. 

Actually a thought just occurred to me...I did download it for windows. My bad. 
But it is all true, I have really enjoyed it. (still will burn you a windows ed 
if you want). Hope to be going 100% open source with in a month as my contract 
up here winds down. -Hans

BTW, we have been running a University class up here on Beowulf clustering...it 
has run very well, and anyone who is interested in the subject in general...I 
may have some helpful information...
