I’m checking out the new Open-Office beta 3 - still disapointing

May 15, 2008

And at a first look there’s nothing to remark. There’s a new start screen opening via a desktop shortcut :

Pressing the Open Document button in the new start panel will use the new Vista file dialog (which is a good point !):

But after opening the new document I started and trying to save it without typing anything in it, the whole program freezes (see the tilebar saying not responding) and here was a major disapointment :

Anyway, one of the reasons I’m never going to use this software is its damn uggly user interface using even ugglier icons for documents and toolbar buttons. So I decided again on Open Office.org : uninstall - it’s useless and still very uggly. I guess I’ll be moving into the cloud, using Google Docs.
