Greetings everyone
well eh.. where to begin? oke, i am just 18 years old and use my vostro 1700 as my main computer. i had vista, (and i have it again, (too bad i know,) but it gets retarded (sounds familiar? where did i heard that before?) anyway i decided to unistall vista and get mint kde. i was very happy with it, wifi everything works fine (i like the cool mint logo by the way). but then, school begun, still no sounds like a problem? here it comes; because i am a student and study for chemistry in the laboratory i need (yes i NEED,) to use ms office exel. i tryed ofcourse Openoffice but isn't a solution. It works pretty oke, different in some ways but almost the same like ms office. So wited in openoffice a exel file for school, but then the problem came. I saved it and when i opend the file in the reall exel and it gets totally messed up. tabel, a graphics where i can not anything, and some errors. If you workt about 3 hours for it and its gone you really don't want it anymore. i tryed to find what's wrong and it seems that the easy things goes oke but when it's get complicated it totally messed up. If you worked 3 hours on a file and when i opend it with exel it died almost totally, the you don't gonna like it anymore. Even how cool linux is.
so i had the idea for a wine specially created for ms office. i don't know if it is a great idea or just worth less crap, but well i thought, cause like mint very much to suggest it in the forum and see where it ends.

so what do you think about?
