I personally try to avoid OpenOffice whenever possible. Any such applica-
tion (Microsoft Office included) is heavy, cumbersome and difficult to ed-
it when you use more minimalist devices like a PDA or Web-based access
(e.g. Telnet). For that reason, I religiously stick to LaTeX, and to sim-
plify matters, you can use Kile or LyX, which are user-friendly front-ends
that come in your SuSE CD's.
Like you, Larry, I am very organised, but I never rely on packages to or-
ganise my data. There is not even a single piece of paper on my desk.
Everything is files electronically, in open formats. It makes things more
indexable, too.
Best wishes and happly labelling,
Roy
