SoftMaker Office 2008 freebie

Here's a link which I saw in the Mepis forums from which you can download SoftMaker Office 2008 for free:
http://loadandhelp.de/home-en.html

Have no experience of it myself yet, but have heard some good reports.

Re: SoftMaker Office 2008 freebie

I tried to create a pkgbuild.
I didn't do all the mime stuff for KDE but for gnome/xfce it works well.

Still working.  Just grabbed my copy now.  Thanks for the tip!

I checked out the demo about 6 months ago due to it's advertised MS word compatibility and was very shocked at how compatible it really is.  Works well.

Cheers,

Arkay.
