This really depends upon your specific use case, and what else you will be using in conjunction with LibO, or MSO. If all you are doing is using the basic office suite, with no additional templates, extensions, etc, then both programs have features that the other lacks, and both programs have features that are more akin to bugs, than functional items. OTOH, if you are using templates for MSO that have an MSRP of US$100,000, then LibO will be a horrible fail for you. Likewise, if you are using software that expects to interact with MSO, the LibO will be a fail, for you. On the gripping hand, if you are using software that expects to interact with LibO, then MSO will be a disastrous fail for you. Andreas wrote: >No, it is not as feature packed as MSOffice. This is true. I can't trigger the Blue Screen of Death when opening documents with LibO, when opening the same document with MSO results in an instant Blue Screen of Death. As such, LibO is obviously dysfunctional, and inferior to MSO, for doing responding in the appropriate manner. (Fourteen years on, and the same documents that gave MSO97 on Win2K the Blue Screen of Death, trigger the Blue Screen of Death with MSO2013 and Win 8.0.) jonathon -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
