Hi there
Iam using Mandrake 10.0
I was installing MS Office 2000 with Wine and it gave me an error about my HDD being full , I checked it to find out that my HDD has 1.5GB free space left. Any comments???

Another thing can anyone of you advice me out of experience which is the best MS Office to install with Wine,
Thanks in advance for any help.

Is there a particular reason you want to use MSOffice rather than OpenOffice? If it's for word processing you'll find that OO can do anything MS Word can do and a lot more.

If you create tables with OOffice and then reopen those tables in MS Word you will find that some of the tables are scrambled. I need MS Office for my university , since to submit my assignments to my tutor in *.doc or *.rtf format such that he can open them with his MS Office suite.
