Thank you, folks. I appreciate the information. Now I'm willing to buy Office 2004. I just ahve to decide if it's worth $36 on Amazon.
I just installed Open Office for PPC 3.x.x the other night on an MDD single 1.25 GHz. It seems awfully slow to launch. Like, sit around for several seconds after clicking the icon waiting for something to happen. Perhaps the Maxtor 250 GB drive in the thing isn't the fastest, but you'd think with such fast hardware the software wouldn't be slower than Word 5.1. I guess maybe Open Office is loading scores of MB of code or something.
Is MS Office 2004 any more or less responsive?
