Up to now, I've use 100% free software on Linux (Even my Linux was given to me freely!) and I do not have any complains to make. I've also contributed to code on Linux for various stuff and have offered it FREELY for the benefit of the community. > I've personally paid for both the Codeweavers Plugin and Office > products.

You're the one who's a total fool. It's ridiculous having to pay for that. And without adding to the fact that you're paying MS Office too!!! What the heck are you doing in this redhat list? You're on the wrong list pal. Anyway I do not use MS Office cause it cranky. I use FREE LaTeX for typsetting which Knuth donated FREELY, and my own slidepro software for Presentations. As for the rest I've more efficient substitutes. This is the real Philosophy you stupid ass. You're hooked to MS products and your plugin that you bought is another way of showing that you can't use real pure LINUX software and that you still really on those weak software. regards, Didier --- PhD student Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS) 5 Research Link, Singapore 117603 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://ssls.nus.edu.sg -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
