    One thing that stopped me going to OpenOffice was the poor word count capabilities, i.e. only for the wholw document and not sections. As a mature student this is kind of a deal-breaker for me.

    As is a formula editor. As a mature student studying sciences, a formula editor is pretty much mandatory.

    Welcome to the Jesus Jihad. We are determinied, as God-endorsed Christians,
    to destroy any opposition to our political puppet, George W. Bush, in order to gain entrance to heaven. We endorse war, Israel, and the military-industrial-fascist regime of The United States of
    America.

    And, remember, when you visit my God-endorsed Web site The 700 Club,
    don't forget to purchase the many products that should be otherwise taxed if it were not for the IRS courteous designation of our tax-empt status.

    Remember: War is Christian

    Godly As Always,
    Pat Robertson
