I think they are just talking about the 128MB of additional swap you can enable in the control panel.

Not sure what license issues you are referring to, qt is opensource. At least the version I am shipping. And Koffice is working just fine, but it does not do word docs, or excel files.
While I only use OpenOffice at home, I still need to be able to share documents with the outside world and like it or not, most of the outside world uses MS Word
So what other KDE apps can I get running on my N810? I use KDE on my desktop already

Perhaps he means you can get the extra memory via swap space.

OK OK, but he said RAM, fair enough, slip of the tongue.. but I still dont have 256MB RAM, AND I WISH I DID.

I do'nt use openoffice, so I can not tell you, if kword supports it, then it should. If not RTF is available, it opens and saves .doc files, just not microsoft .doc files.

In summary, OpenOffice.org will run in 256 MB of memory, provided not 255 MB of it is swap.
Seriously, it'll only start slowly but, unless you keep switching modules like a madman, the actual running speed will be quite acceptable. I've run versions of OO.o in as little as 64 MB of physical RAM without going insane[*].

I can run ooo version 2.something in 128 M ram + 128 M swap (puppy linux) and it's fully usable. I bet ooo is next to a nightmare to port to the IT but the binary would run acceptably.

KOffice supports ODF so there should be no major problems with exchanging documents between KO and OOo. Note: there are differences in specification interpretation...

I failed getting Abiword to load on 2007, but I did succeed in downloading antiword -- a command line tool for reading .doc files, unless they are heavily formatted.

Before anyone asks (because I know someone will), OpenOffice is far too heavy and requires Java.
