Re: [libreoffice-users] How many of you deal with the Linux Users Group [Facebook]?

Hi :)

I totally agree.  Being able to access an alternative is almost always good
imo/ime.

Different use-cases often require slightly different tools or a
jack-of-all-trades.  MSO tries to be jack-of-all-trades but ends up being
such a horribly bloated mess that it significantly slows things down quite
a bit.  I prefer the FOSS idea of finding a good-enough tool for the job
and then gradually finding better and better ones if i specialise.

Ironically your last sentence explains the difference between "free" as
used in FOSS compared to bargain basement deals - but without much of the
cultishness.  (a fine band btw)

a Tom :)
