Moley's Musings
I'm concerned with aspects of freedom, choice, respect, courtesy and consideration. This is obvious from my contributions. I also believe in the value of common sense.

EIOffice Competitive Upgrade
EIOffice has been around for about 6 years but the current version, EIOffice 2009, is considerably more attractive. So far as I understand it is fully compatible with all MS formats and the ODF, in addition to the alternative Chinese Standard. An interesting description can be found under Press Releases on the Evermore site.
I haven't yet had time to use it seriously, to see what it can and cannot do, so I will hope to report back in a few days. Meantime I can say it opens and displays my MS files faultlessly in a Windows environment.
EIOffice has been developed by the Wuxi Corporation in China and, I believe, is strongly supported by the Chinese Government. It would be nice if it could provide some more genuine choice and competition to M$ Office
