For some reason I never really needed a word processor for linux. Recently,
it has become my job to manage a small linux based lab for grad students in
my department. They need a good low-cost word-processor to type small
papers and quick quizzes, AbiWord looks like the ticket. However, I have a
few questions (having only test driven it at home for about 2 seconds in
Win9x) ...
Is the current version stable enough for people who know little about
computers to use?
Do you recommend AbiWord for a production machine?
(yes, I know it's not a 1.0 release, but neither is enlightenment :)
As for my self, I like it and can't understand why I would ever want to run
StarOffice again to type a letter, but hey that's just me.
