> OTOH Koffice's Kspread

This piece of "software" is utterly unusable. It lacks basic
functionality like updating cell references on other sheets (do you know
how long this takes to do manually?). Six months later, it can't read
its own output any more - everything looks jumbled (happened to me 3
times before I switched to OO). It crashes too often. It doesn't have a
usable scaling function for printing (you end up editing postscript
files). That's what I remember off-hand, but should be enough for a k.o.

If you need software which has some level of user stability (think of
who is going to have to use it in 2 years), OO is probably a much better
bet than either of KDE or gnome. Not that I think a spreadsheet is in
any way more than a basic excuse for accounting, though on a small scale
it does the job (says he who is the treasurer of a <50 member nonprofit).
