Bummer.

OpenOffice seems to be a good tool. I haven't used it much but a teacher of mine used to praise it a lot while denigrating MO.

But why OO?

I used MO alot at work, but my home PC's never had any office type software installed (I have a work laptop, which has MO and I used to use that for personal stuff - but I need to return it soon).

As I'm not flush, and I don't want a cracked version of MO, I thought I'd go Open Source, like I am using FF not IE.

I'm also looking at Joomla (or at least I was before Xmas and further distractions) and am thinking of learning about Wordpress too.

It'd be cool to be an Open Source guru and encourage others to go that way.

Definitely cool.

Since in you are on the right path, the open source path, my advice is for you to learn some Latex when you have the time for it. Much better output than any word processor even though it is a little bit tricky to learn at first.

Cheers will look into it.

Ah!
You can find a lot of online manuals on Latex. Some easier end better than others but I think this one is a good one.

My OO can save files in MO format, no conversion needed
