I would like to hear peoples experiences with Applixware 4.3. I've tried the latest staroffice, besides being really slow(intel 166mmx, 64megs ram, static version of staroffice), it segv's on me often. For now, I'm still rebooting into win95 to use msword.. also, has anyone tried wordperfect for linux? how's the beta of version 7? (www.sdcorp.com)
