Off topic: well sort of. Would you stop complaining about OOo 2.0.x?
It is not the program's fault for its slowness. It is how you are using
your computer. Part of the problem is the amount of RAM you have: get
more. For less than $50, you can double the amount you have. (This price
is for the USA.)
If you are going to be running 5-10 applications at one time, get a
computer that is capable of handling all of them efficiently. Using a 450
MHz CPU to do this is a little like pulling a 2206 pound load (1 metric
ton) with a Honda Civic. That would be more than even some small pickups
could handle.
I have no problems with a 375MHz CPU and 160 MB RAM. But then I am
patient enough to let it do its work without expecting it to be a
thoroughbred.
