Dear all,
Has anyone has any issues of any kinds when delopying Openoffice
in schools?
The one that hits me most often is the autocomplete feature. It's annoying, and I keep losing track of how to turn it off. Most distracting, as a user types spaces after completing a word, no spaces actually appear until the next word is started.
This is _unanimously_ confusing to users. And myself.
Otherwise: easy to roll out, works on both GNU/Linux and legacy MS Windows, the price is right, it reads MSFT formats.
Peace.
Peter
