Hey Everyone,
I'm out for a random review of another random thing. But hey, here I go. I just downloaded the program and was clicking around quite a lot. Seems great. Pretty much everything one could ask for is here, spell check fonts, import from scanner and so on. Unlike previous versions, this one has been stable and quick.
I saved some files from Word and opened them without any problems in OpenOffice. I even saved a web page, imported into word. Resaved in Word format, and opened and had improvement in quality!
Over all, I am impressed with their progress. It still has a way to go for complete integration, but is on it's way. If you are using Microsoft Works, time to switch. If you have Office, then I wouldn't switch.
PROS
-------
Export to PDF
Nice Spell Craft
Cons
-------
A little Slow
Placed itself in the start up menu, and doesn't help in any way.
thanks for reading,

I've been using OpenOffice for a year now and its really nice. Being totally free helps too, especially for people in school. When I was in college, I constantly had to create and send Microsoft Word documents, and I only had Microsoft Works (it creates .wps files instead of .doc). Needless to say, I downloaded open office and was able to read the Word documents, along with Excel and Power Point documents! I'd rather have it be visually ugly than pretty and slow!
