Krause <courrier.oou.fr.mjk<at>googlemail.com> I created an account and tried the Ulteo OpenOffice online. It is not the same as thinkfree.com. Ulteo is VERY slow and sluggish. [ I agree - therefore I don't use it anymore ... mjk] To me it looks like you're looking at OpenOffice running through a VNC connection on another computer. That's why it's so slow. By the way, I have Road Runner Turbo and get 15Mbps back to the Road Runner servers. So connection speed is not the issue here. ThinkFree runs in JavaScript loaded into your web browser. It looks exactly like Excel and has all the same features. Response is instantaneous. This is what OpenOffice should do. Greg ----- Original Message ---- From: Manfred J.
