Who here uses Linux?

Hi all  smile  I wanted to gather a group of linux-using scratchers to discuss, well, Linux. Like, what distro is best, why Linux is great, what it needs improvements on, and troubleshooting.

Re: Who here uses Linux?

Any reason you've made another topic about this? You've already got a Unix/Unix-like OS thread here; you can just bump that one.  smile

LibreOffice works for me. openoffice.org is dead, but libreoffice is very actively developed.

What does that have to do with the points made?  And for that matter, what does that line have to do with the other line?

I don't think he's trolling, I think he was wondering what the last line in your post meant.

The last line is probably a fake sig or something.

I have compatibility issues with doc and docx files and Libreoffice. I'm stuck with Word  tongue
