Nope I don't use Open Office. Believe it or not any personal correspondence from my home is typed on an old Smith-Corona typerwriter. And we use Windoze at work. Hey I'm with you. One of the reasons I do not have YDL 4.0 running on any Mac at home is that I have old world machines, 4.0 is a resource hog, and even if I did install it; what could I realistically run on it for it to be productive? I surf the web at home.
