Re: Quantification

I meant Koffice 1.something. It seems like version 2 as I had to upgrade from what came with Mandrake 7.2, the apps were so buggy as to be nearly unusable but now (ver 1.1) both Kword and Kspread are working nicely so far. Konqueror (1.9.8 for me) seems to be rendering most websites very well. I have switched between Konq and Netscape and Konq is preffered. I'll download Mozilla and Opera and compare but I can't see leaving Konqueror.
I AM finding out that getting all the right libs and resolving dependencies on various flavors of such libs is more tricky then I first thought. But when I get evrything working on an app they seem to work great. Slower to load sometimes then my memories of windows but they seem quicker once loaded. My system seems to really rock, speedwise, with Linux (I have an AMD k-300 with 128 meg ram)
And best of all, I will never have to sign over my firstborn to Microsoft by using XP.
If you're lurking Shawn G. or if anyone else reads this, are their any recent reviews of Kapital that you know about? I need something to replace Quicken and am going to start that hunt today. At this time I am going to lean toward KDE apps where possible as so far I prefer it over gnome. |
