Textmaker (Softmaker/Ashampoo Office) 2008
TucknDar:
Yes, I'm trying it and it seems to be very good Office suite. Still need some time to see whether it's worth buying though. It starts very fast, btw!
tomos:
Yeah,
I should point out I was mainly concerned with "saving a doc in textmaker and opening it in MS Word"
But as said already I havent really tested/pushed it much
TucknDar:
I tried a few simple things with boxes and images placed above each other and some wrapping here and there, and everything seemed fine txtmaker->word
But a full document with extensive formatting would make for a proper test. I think I've got some laying around...
TomColvin:
I'm glad my search of the forum turned up this thread. I got a notice about the special discount of Ashampoo Office 3 [$29.95] and am now evaluating it. So far, I like it a lot. Will likely do a post about it on my writer's blog.
I'm also investigating word processors that run off a USB stick, as does this software. I've identified about 10 of them so far. As I travel a lot, the USB stick may be a useful option for me. Especially since the US court decision that allows US customs to examine and seize anyone's computer for no announced reason whatsoever!

Er... wouldn't that mandate likely extend to media as well?
