I've tried it before and I'm not planning to give it a try again for now...

It's GUI is nice...

But it's freaking slow to start-up and it's a f-king resource hog like no other word processor I've used before...all I can say is this app isn't worth using if you have low RAM or if you are looking for a 'faster' alternative to MS Office...don't believe me, just try it for yourself and damn figure it out on your own.

I've tried it as well... I dislike it's GUI personally, and I can second it being slow. I stick to OOo for a reason.

Thanks safeguy & Hel for ur inputs. We should wait for the new version to see if there are any improvements..

IBM Lotus symphony is based on Open Office a.f.a.i.k

[hellnoire]

I'm aware Leofelix.. but the old 2.X branch, not the 3.X which it's presently on. So it doesn't even support DOCX
