Jerome Locson of Office Tweaks is asking: What’s your office suite alternative?
I already gave him my answer that if I am not using OpenOffice.org, there’s always the combination of Abiword + Gnumeric + S5.

As the results indicate, seems like those who read/visit this blog use Ubuntu. But it doesn’t mean that it’s “the” distro because there are still …read more

I’d like to know what distro you guys are using right now. I am currently using Ubuntu Feisty on my laptop and also am currently waiting for the new release, Gutsy Gibbon. Just several days more and I’d do an upgrade! Hooray!
