Hi Arthur:

Interestingly, TechRepublic just posted the following article:

How much pertains to you with a tablet I am not sure. There are other
online/cloud office solutions. Google immediately comes to mind:

There is a very new OpenSource Office Suite offering. I have no idea how
good or bad it is but we know how fast OSS projects advance:

Subject: [dba-Tech] Linux equivalent of Office 2013?

I am shortly to obtain my first tablet, an Acer Acronia. Purely by
coincidence, I took a look at this slideshow about Office 2013, which is
mostly Office 365. I must admit that lots of the changes impressed me.
However, it assumes a subscription to Office 365, and I'm not sure that I
want to go there.

Does anyone know whether any Linux provider has plans for an equivalent,
ideally free?
