And why the Office package began to grow like a montgolfiere. Or like La Fontaine's frog which wanted to look as big an ox was... </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>    The prices doubled, tripled, quintupled by each version. Then came </FONT> <FONT face=Calibri size=4>the Open Office.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>And changed everything. Actually in some of my translations I can't use but MS Word - because my client does not have the Open Office package. But otherwise for the last 2-3 years I am using only Open Office even though only the windows version, but with time, i'll use more the Linux one. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>    Last but not least: Open Office has inbuilt dictionaries for any possible language, while I am battling against a US English thinking MS Office 2007 when writing some not-English texts, i.e. in Hungarian. This US version is practically the only one version which one can find here in Serbia - and to me as asssermented court interpreter makes a hell of my life.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>Sincerely yours</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>Horváth-Militicsi Attila, prof. agrégé</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>assermented court interpreter</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Calibri size=4>Email: <A href="mailto:6hunyadi@eunet.yu">6hunyadi@eunet.yu</A> </FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
