    Someone in the community once told me that he figures the reason why they didnt port OO was because if someones stupid enough to pay for an OS they'd be stupid enough to buy their own word processor too (appleworks)

    And that explains what? "Better" in itself doesn't mean a damn thing. The grandparent was asking for people who have had actual experiences with using Abiword for non-English text, not a nebulous bullet-item.

    I guess you mean "production environment". Most "productive" environments don't use any of the *Word Programs.

    I'll have to say MSOffice Professional 2003 is the way to go...

    Play dumb all you want, it was quite obvious what my reference was. You also avoided the challenge completely. Fitting.

    I'm sorry, but what the fuck are you talking about? Your posts, both of them, make absolutely no sense whatsoever, so I've come to the conclusion that you're either stupid or a troll. Probably both.

    """
    The "it" ...

    Oh dear, poor little Apple advocate can't count up to two, the number of "it"s in that sentence. Must be something to do with the mouse buttons.

    Shit, I hate having to explain the nuances in insults, but you really are that thick.

    And I went out of my way to try to guess what the hell your question was supposed to be and to educate you, basically by repeating my original point, slightly more s_l_o_w_l_y this time in the hope that something would sink in, but alas to no avail.

    Glad to have you as a freak, I will be less likely to see your dross in the future.

    FP.
