2 hours after bootup, and only firefox running with 1 tab open. Mind you, those atoms are quite strong, I can run a xp vm and a windows 7 vm on top of ubuntu fluidly, but OO just likes being slow i guess :)

lol, 10 years and it isn't stable yet :P

I use OO on a 1.6ghz atom with 1.5gb of RAM on ubuntu, and it just feels too slow for me. I just tested opening a 80MB document (it has lots of images.) and it takes 21 seconds. 10 on starting OO and 11 on opening the document itself. and saving this document takes 1.5 minutes so i think the preformance of OO is kinda shitty don't you think?

"The new features include faster start up times; " Is that a special feature? it should be normal. not that I hate OO, but it has a long way to go before being an app I truely love. It's the best office suite out there(to me.) but it still isn't great.

what could possibly go wrong?

Yeah! most of us have our girls tied up in the basement! (using ductape naturally..)

you sound like a good BOFH my dear sir.

in tfa it is mentioned that it takes too much time to update the code to newer wine code, so they don't get the new features/bugfixes from wine.
this project is a sort of wrapper around wine to make the updating much easier.. so when that works they can focus on the bugs in wine itself..

You did!

I am jealous.

I've forgotten to welcome our book reading pc overlords, can I still do so now?

In Kapitalist russia YOU control snow,
In Communist Russia Snow controls YOU!

yet again a failed promise made by a politician, does it ever CHANGE?

It's not about the size, it's about what you can do with it.

But I don't think you would understand.

In the days of windows 98 i had a machine wich got an uptime of 3 or 4 weeks. the only thing it tid was run seti@home tough..

if you want uptime you shoud get a cisco switch. mine now has an uptime of 6 months and i got it 6 months ago :)

My favorite games are the only reason to have a windows machine on my network at all, and it's in a different vlan. and often the network cable is detached. I mostly play singleplayer games :)
