I’ve been running openoffice on my laptop now for seeveral weeks, and have to say its really good.

There are a few new things to learn, numbering formats in Writer are slightly different to Word, and some XLS charts dont import well into Chart in open office and need redesigning.

I dont agree with some that say openoffice is slow.  Its not, certainly on my laptop with normal business files.

Overall, I’m pleased with the move to openoffice.org software – no loss of functionality, and its even a little quicker too!

Roll on the next migration stage…
