I know you had paid for MS office - through your ass.

But this is more than 100% compatible and 500% better.

So please crap out MS office - through your ass again.

And use the BETTER & FOC & FULLY LEGAL Open Office suite. It is best and it do way more than MS craps. Download is fast.

Uninstall all your MS craps!

Also highly recommend FireFox 3.5

It is FAST! It beat the shit out of IE.

Open office is good but not 100% compatible to MS Office.

Especially so for the powerpoint equivalent.

Hi Mr. Goh,

Open Office is more format capable then MS, it can read & write so many file formats including all of MS's but MS can not handle Open Office's files. :wink:

For over 90% users, the most frequently used things are word processing & spread-sheets OO are very competible there. Presenter / PowerPt are essentially used by students & salesmen. If need to do presentation directly use OO's Presenter to create presentation as well as showing it. Put OO inside a thumb drive to install it everywhere. Leave MS Office behind totally, uninstall them if the computers are under your care. :-)

It may be a harder thing if you want to cross change Powerpoint / Presenter e.g. edit file in one and then playback with the other. But you can choose 1 and leave the other. Choose the FOC one! Leave the expensive one! :wink:

You can always save the open office file in MS word or excel format. This is not an issue if you are doing simple tasks. But for macros and powerpoint, you may face a problem.

My company also gave me lots of FOC shit which I throw aside. The problem is not about FOC the problem is QUALITY.

MS is expensive and BAD. Open Office is FOC & GOOD.

Even if MS became FOC I will still not use them, because I want the QUALITY FOC, not the FUCKED UP FOC.

:biggrin:
