Its bloated...more akin to STAROFFICE and the unified desktop model (that being open a new doc or spreadsheet or presentation and it all opens within the same master window. Doc conversion seems to be pretty good. Thrown a few different versions of powerpoints at it and besides some font issues...everything was handled fairly well. Its NOT going to move me from openoffice at this point. Not even close. The Lotus name may win it some converts...especially anyplace still using NOTES as I'm sure it will integrate.
