Well IBM has just released an Office Suite FREE to all supporting Linux and Windoze... The Lotus Symphony Office Suite... How ever the requirements are absolutely Nutz...
* Supported Windows platforms: Windows XP, Windows Vista
* Supported Linux platforms: SLED 10, RHEL 5, Redhat5
* 900MB disk space minimum
* 1GB RAM memory minimum
* US English locale
The think is many people still don't even run 512 megs of ram... To say 1 GIG Minimum is beyond belief...
They should simply release Lotus Smart Suite and let that develop as it's been around and it's not that hard on resources as this...
Hopefully everyone will stop worrying about fancy looking GUI and just make the application work and keep it simple!!!
Guess we will have to wait and see how this develops...
