    been using it. as its all thats availalbe on my operating system platform as an document processing suite. However they’re about to get some competition.

    lotus of all poeple have decided to make a free document processing suite called symphony.. how odd.. when did ibm become so generous. symphony will be available to windows and linux users (yay) immediately but mac people will have to wait a few months.

    Hmmm, you have a point. I’ll wait and see if they really do release a version for mac users.

Got something to say?
