Hi :)
Hmmm, pointless bickering amongst ourselves leaves the way clear for the real competition. "The
Popular People's Front". With so many of people still in both communities it is really ridiculous
to compete against each other like that. Gentle joshing is fine but politicing is pointless.
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi Tom,
Why can't they just say things like "A LOT faster"?? Why drag in numbers that are likely to be
proven wrong in certain/all cases?
Well, probably because the cynic in me knows that someone in the AOO
camp released a statement about AOO 3.4 essentially saying that it was
much faster (by a factor of x, y, z) than LO, and both projects seem to
be content to knock each other about at the slightest occasion (sighs in
disbelief). I have personally always hated the spin that this project
has attempted to put on things to make it sound more attractive than the
"competition" - it was the same thing while OOo was ongoing.
Like Andreas, I generally tend to ignore announcements like that and
prefer factual analysis, but how often is software tested and
statistically significant results given ? errmm....
On my Linux box, with less than one Gig of ram and an old 5400 rpm
harddisk, everything is slow !!!! ;-)
On my Macbook, it depends.
So basically, YMMV - your mileage may vary.
Alex
