OpenOffice/Writer requiring like 80 MB and quite some time to load up. SMO is on the boat with roughly 7 MB, and well, I don't have any numbers for MSO (a lack of `pmap` on Windows), but given that it starts up as fast on a 16 MB RAM Win98 machine as OOO does on a multi-CPU opteron, I think that tells enough. (SMO = Softmaker Office MSO = Microsoft Office) Jan -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
