I use KOffice on a fairly regular basis. I like it, esp. because I
keep on getting bug reports sent to me in Word format, and it means
that I don't have to fire up Word somehow....

The question remains, why, when I develop on a Linux box, have a
Solaris machine as the production server, and test using Mozilla,
Oprea and only IE as a last resort, people think it's a Good Thing to
send me bug reports in a format alien to my platform. Yeah, I know the
answer, but I don't have to like it :)

Cheers,

Simon
