Really? a 45MB application does all this? Are you sure?? I have installed it and I just feel it's 'borrowing' stuff from my installed MS Office :-) On 6 September 2013 10:11, Bwana Lawi <mail2lawi@gmail.com> wrote:

Really. The drawback from the 45MB one is that it doesn't save in 2007/10/13 format. Only in 2003 format. And yes, they do 'steal' a lot of design from MS. On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 10:37 AM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

Bwana Lawi - what I mean is that it's difficult to believe that this 45MB can deliver an application normally delivered in GBs of data. So I was of the impression that the 45MB app has found components from the 600MB app and was using them in the bg:) It's hard to believe that this is a standalone suite - distributed as 45MB only!

That would be sneaky :) And probably illegal. But you could be right. The Linux version is around 140 MB On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 11:41 AM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice are free (as in freedom) software. Kingsoft Office Free, on the other hand, is proprietary.

After reading a few articles about NSA's programmes<http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/09/05/us/documents-reveal-nsa-campaign-against-encryption.html?ref=us&pagewanted=all&_r=0>as revealed by Snowden (NYtimes), I've come to that point where I take it that "Internet iko na wenyewe".

@Mark I like you, you real ask very relevant questions hehehe indeed so MS doesn't right????????.... It is free, steal the MS features or not at the background, it is free not proprietary. I would bother if it were proprietary....if I would get them I will say Kingsoft steal it all and help sink the monopoly ship, it is sinking anywayy.......
