Yes, I'm considering that. I already have OpenOffice for the mac and use it occasionally but maybe I'm getting old -- I've been using Word so long that the features and procedures are second nature to me, and I don't like OpenOffice as well, probably just because I'm less used to it. There's something to be said for having used a tool for so long that you don't have to think about how to use it, you just use it. -- Peter Peter M.
