Actually, its not as evil as it seems.
I download from the apple OSX site the apple X11 package
I might do that and see how things go..
The open office startup program loads X11 and then starts. As to why OO haven't compiled for OSX natively I am not sure, but then again, If I was working for apple, I would probably have developed a local port team and made it available anyway, but then I guess after so many years fighting to get MS to do a office for mac package, they have to keep a safe distance from OO.
I keeping dropping notes on the OO website each time they ask me what features I want added, but in the meantime I run it without the integration. It works, and can open attachments automatically once you have it all set up.
When I went looking on the OO site I found the MacOS X page but all the download links resulted in a 404. Where did you get it from?
As for Linux notebooks have you considered the Compaq offering shipping with SUSE installed ?
Perhaps. Got a link to that? Regards
