I don't like SO5.1 (which i assume you are refering to). The good news is
that SO 6.0 doesn't have this file manager thingy though it does insist on
taking you into a wp doc first. The bad news is that lots of things don't
work. Clicking on help does nothing, trying to "SaveAs" an excel file
crashes out of the program and I can no way to set up my printer. Its the
usual bugger to install as well. It does seem to load faster than the
previous version though. I think they have released a beta so that we will
bug test it for them......
I'm quite happy with WP8 (as long as I don't spell check my documents -which
hangs the system) but I could really use a decent linux spreadsheet (don't
anyone say gnomesheet). I colleague installed applixware suite on his
system and that looked quite good. NH.
