Is it *really* that similar to MS Office? I find KOffice to be the best out there at the moment - KFormula, love it, try that Gnome - but seriously, IMHO MS Office was the reason that Microshite conquered the planet, and KOffice is kind of, well a bit better - when it's left beta-mode.

Mmm. Two years ago when I bought my first box - win98 installed natch - and knew nothing - I thought Outlook was terrible.  Story of the week:  my girlfriend has has had *IT training* this week at work, and not knowing the difference betwenn Linux or windoze, told the instructor she wanted something "more like KWord" - God, I'm going to marry this woman.
