Organizations should use Open Office



You many have heard of openoffice or might have used that too. But for most of us Microsoft Office is the only software for this purpose!!! Well Open office is a open source software which is developed by Sun Microsystems. And yeah its true that Open office is not as good as MS Office but still its a free software and on the contrary you have to pay for the MS Office package. And moreover open office can work seamlessly on MS office format and its having its own format too. So you have functionalities of both. But for heavy users like who have to manage thousands of records in MS excel spreadsheet for that MS office is better as open office takes lot of time to open heavy files of MS office format. But it works fine with its own format. But nearly 90% of the users will never use such big files so its better to switch to open office and save license fee.

I am too using open office as I am a not a heavy user and I have to only do word editing thing. So I use open office and its working fine. And moreover I don't have to pay for the license fee for open office thats the best part.

So organizations should use open office for them as in most of the offices only word editing has to be dont many features of the package is never used. It will save a lot of money, which can be invested in other softwares or any other thing.

Safari 3 beta released for windows and Mac



Apple has launched Safari for windows too. Earlier it was available only for Mac OS X. The safari is about 2 times faster than any of their counterparts. Its stable and secure too.Since its released Apple has fixed many holes in Safari beta 3 and its still is in beta version so dont expect that it will run like the older safari of Mac. But yes on the speed side it has improved a lot. We hope that it will be the best browser when it final version is released.

But for now it crashes on some of sites. I tried www.espnstar.com and the safari crashed every time. By the way I have submitted a crash report to Apple so I hope that it will be fixed very soon.
One more feature I felt is lacking is Google toolbar. May be its so because I am so used to google toolbar in firefox.
but anyways Safari indeed is emerging as a very good browser and it is a threat to browsers like firefox and IE 7 mainly due to its speed but if some more features are added like google toolbar then definatley its going to rule the roost

And by the way download safari from here www.apple.com/downloads
