I apologize for resending, but I forgot to change the subject and to turn
off html.  (My employer picked Outlook--not me!)

Like many gnewbies (I add the g cuz I am new to Open Source unices, but not
computers in general), much of what I did in the Windoze world was using
word, excel, powerpoint, etc.  I am familiarizing myself with the KDE office
suite, and wondered if others who do desktop publishing type stuff would be
willing to share their experiences and advice.  I always have a lot of
problems with printers (and sound cards).  Do many people use CUPS?  Do they
find that they can get their desktop wordprocessing done well?  I really
like KDE and chose it over Gnome in large part because of Konqueror and
Koffice.  I am really not trying to start a flamewar, but curious about what
experiences/thoughts other new users have.
