all I want is an office suite that can read and write documents sent to me by my colleages at our Winduhs-enslaved office.
Have you tried Abiword and Gnumeric? I install the precompiled Open Office because it's the only linux application that can open powerpoints. I wish there was a linux app that just did powerpoints. Abiword and Gnumeric can open and read windows .docs and spreadsheets. If I was going to write an essay I'd write it in html with gedit and print it with firefox. People on windows can read html so it works ok sending it to tutors or whatever.
