I know this isn't really the Gentoo (read - Linux) way, but, since I'm using |
2 |
this for business apps, I need to take the end users point of view for a |
3 |
moment. Open Office or the "Ximianized" Open Office. I read that Ximian |
4 |
was bought by Novell, so I'm wondering which of these two portage packages |
5 |
to get. www.ximian.org is no longer, apparently, so I'm wondering when this |
6 |
will turn into a commercial (read - for sale) product. |
7 |
I read that the ximianized version is faster to load and run, and I also |
8 |
read that open office takes a long time to compile, so I'd hate to put the |
9 |
Ximianized version together and then find out somewhere down the road that |
10 |
I'd have to dump it and go to the other version. Any insight here is |
11 |
greatly appreciated. I'm finally (after 3 days and nights) getting to the |
12 |
end of having a "basic functioning laptop". |
