Re: [expert] Office Suite for Linux

Most of what I have heard of is installation problems on Caldera and SuSE.  Seg faults and slowness.  The people who have it running seem to like it I know it was rushed out because I talked to some of the developers who admitted there were some things not quite resolved.
