I downloaded Gimp, but it won't install on a XP-pro machine with hyper
threading. I was asked to disable hyperthreading before indtalling Gimp.
Thus the message is that like MS products, these products don't always work
on all platforms. Don't get me wrong, I like OO and use it at work on 1 PC
and at home have loaded it on kids PC.

I think Scribus is a bit like the Gimp. Fantastic software but the
professionals use what they know and what they were trained on.
This years computer graphic art competition in Germany (Spiegel) was won by
an
outsider artist by unanimous decision of the jury - who was gobsmacked when
they learned that the much acclaimed work of art was created with the Gimp,
of which nobody in the Jury ever heard before. Certainly stirred the CG
community in Europe up a bit
While the user interface is more refined in programs like Photoshop, the
almost infinite power of the Gimp's scripting interface unleashes
possibilities unheared of in commercial programs for those artisist with a
bit of computer know how and willingness to learn.
I think Scribus is not quite in the same league yet, but it seems developing
in huge leaps with a very active and ethusiastic community
