AbiWord 1.0.1 Released
plam writes "After 3 years of hacking, the AbiWord team has unleashed AbiWord 1.0.1 upon the world. AbiWord is a Free cross-platform word processor which runs on Linux and Windows, MacOS X, QNX, FreeBSD, Solaris and others. AbiWord is small and compact (20 times smaller than OpenOffice!), yet contains most of the features found in larger word processors, including Word and WordPerfect import/export."

I heard about this Linux thing from a geek at school, he's not chill like us, but he does my hoemwork for me. And he dawgged windows and stuff and said linux is da shiznit, so me and some peeps tried to get it but it didn't work.
then i asked for help, werd, and the peeps said mean things. That's just cause their fat ass is behind a screen and scred of some hardcore homies reeking vengense on their ass.
No, but perhaps they could use some LAbiaSpread.
already originates at -1? Seems stupid to me.
oh well, go ahead and waste your mod poitns, fag. guess they're burning a whole in your pocket.
PS your mother is a strumpet.
This is sort of offtopic, but can anybody tell me why the use of active voice is preferred over passive voice?
I think it should be "1/20th the size".
:-)
20 times smaller would be -19.
May we never see th

I hope high gas prices are depriving your children, you fucking dumbass.
Well, apparently it comes with the standard Free Software helpdesk support. However, if being cussed at is not enough, you can pay extra and get punched in the face. :)
For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
And now you make a guess at both my gender and, um, amount of gender. Are you sure I'm even a guy?
Sounds dirty...too bad their mascot is an ant :)
Your post was totally off-topic except for one sentence. AND you gave it a +1 bonus. It would really be a shame if you got MODDED STRAIGHT DOWN TO HELL!!!
Lucky you're anonymous or I'd KICK YOUR ASS!!!
Here's another.
No wonder you dotcommies are out of work
[i]any one know of a easy to use linux distro for an IBM pent 133 Thinkpad 760E 32meg ram/1gb hdd and a 3com etherlink III card?[/i]
The latest Red Hat would not be a good choice because it has a suggested install size of 1.2 GB, with a 650MB minimum.
Other than that, a P133/32MB is plenty of machine to run Linux. I'm partial to Debian because it's got a very flexible, powerful packaging system whereby you have a lot of control over what you do and don't install.
Actually my advice is to do a google groups (deja google) search to see what kinds of Linux experience others have had with Thinkpads -- laptop hardware can be kind of particular, and that way you can find out which distros have a proven track record.
