RE: FLASH: OT Post

[Fabienne Hadkova]

Hello Eric


I use both (privately) and I think that StarOffice takes a little time to

get used to, so that the people working in your office would have a couple

things to learn, but in the long run, I find it a lot better than MSOffice.

I use MS though for email and Internet, StarOffice seems to be quite slow

for these functions, it could just be that I have not configured it right.

But since you can just download it, why don't you do it and play around with

it for a while. The only drawback is that the database provided with it is

not comparable to Access, if you really need a database (but I have not

upgraded for a year now, so I don't know how it looks nowadays)

Sorry to send an OT post, but I need some real world opinions on an office

suite.......


The CIO of my company wants to ditch Microsoft Office and wants to go with

StarOffice by Sun.  My question is are any of you using StarOffice and what

do you think of it in a corporate environment?


Thanx in advance,

			Eric
