Subject: Re: [users] Windows 98 users
I run Open Office w/ 98SE on my computer with ASUS mobo and AMD 1.2
gig Athlon, and 256 MB RAM.
I also run it on an identical computer running Fedora Core 4. It is
just as fast, or slow on either computer.
It runs much slower than Office 97 PRO on my windows machine.
Someone said that MS Office is 10-100 times faster than
OpenOffice. I have Windows 98 (first edition) and
OpenOffice.org 1.1.5 on a 450 MHz Pentium 2 with 256 MB
SDRAM. A couple of years ago I had MS Office 97 installed and
I agree. Office 97 was at least 10 times faster on my
machine, probably 100 times is closer to the truth in my case
Office 97 is faster in what? Starting, opening documents, accepting what
you type?
While OO is indeed slower when starting or opening documents, but it can
not be 100 times.

Whether OO is 10 or 100 times slower, it is way to slow.
It seems to hog way to much memory. It will tend to lockup if a few
other apps are open. This is with 250MB of RAM. I don't have this
problem w/Office 97 unless I have a whole lot of stuff like Photoshop or
Gimp open at the same time.
I am really glad that OO is available. I just think that there has to be
a big advanced in this area.
