I use a thing called Abiword, pretty much like M.S word. If you intend on using it on other pc's that have MS word make sure you save it as the correct file type if you do use it :y:

They dont have spellchecker. Unless you have the 'nice edition' but that can only corret 1 letter words.

Open office without a doubt, can save and open in every .txt .doc. docx whatever, I'd say it's probably better than office 2007 and I've had both.

Is this a rule of Simo's? Cause it's not a legal thing, you can say what you want even on servers hosted on the UK, it's not hosting the copyrighted material.

I don't believe that, saxperience isn't facilitating copyright or allowing anything to be hosted to their servers so how are they accountable? :S. Isn't that like saying if we discuss illicit drugs saxperience can be held accountable because they are illegal also.

Sounds like censorship and oppression tbh.

Jinkeys, well I don't like the the 'law' which forces the rules so I don't think I like the rules.

Plus i've never broken em Ryan baby, I suggested open office :A:.
