I'd love to drop GNOME and KDE support for OO.o, but on my laptop I really don't have the resources to spare for compiling OO.o, so I live with whatever's in the package. Such is life. Actually, I'd love to drop OO.o too, but I haven't gained the level of familiarity with LaTeX yet to do the things I do with OO.o when making invoices. -- Chad Perrin [ content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] Quoth Sterling Camden: "The Church doesn't want people calling for inquisitions."
