Abiword's nice!

Can do most things and is quite fast, compared
to OpenOffice atleast, which is really powerfull
but slow.

Of course we'd need at least four of them: Windows to Amiga; Mac to Amiga; Linux to Amiga; and Unix to Amiga. ;-)

(I'm thinking of AmigaOS and MorphOS as somewhat similar here)


 :-D

But then we would have to live with all that
bloatware that's haunting the "mainstream"
plattforms  :-(

I don't see any point using an filled Amiga with
pc software, takes a tractor to pull that and the
Amiga is much more of a ligthweight sportscar
(or go kart  :-D)

My point is; I don't want Mozilla or OpenOffice
or .... I want software that can do what they do,
but faster and leaner  :-)

ho! I have an idea! you see I'm sitting right
now in front of my A1 running Linux, AND
i have OpenOffice, Abiword, Mozilla, Opera,
MOL,  . . . . . . . . .  and so on. There's no need
porting anything, it's here on my Amiga! ;-)

...and I'm dreaming about OS4 so I can get
rid of all this crap
