Yeah, I installed it, and though the prefs screen didn't crash anything, I
could only navigate the user information screen. Trying to move between the
different tab sections of the dialog was virtually imposible. I finally
removed it and just said forget it. Back to Pages for me. Oh well, it was
worth a try, I reckon.

Subject: Re: OpenOffice: Should I try it?
I have not tried it in over two years. The last time I did, the preferences
dialog would crash the program. It also I believe treats every line as if
it were paragraph, but I can't remember. Or maybe it's it treats of
paragraph as a separate item, making editing doable, but a bit awkward.
It's definitely usable, but definitely not my cup of tea.

I've heard mixed opinions on this. How is the accessibility of Open
Office, opinions not withstanding. I understand that for some people
it's just not their cup of tea, but leaving opinions out, going only on
fact, is OpenOffice worth my time in at least getting and experimenting
with? I hear that a lot of the dialogs in it are quite nonstandard, and
though they're somewhat doable, I hear they're kind of weird until you
figure them out and know what you're doing. I just wanted to see if
anyone else has tried it, and what kind of luck if any you had with it,
even if only minimum satisfaction.
