NAC - looking for Destop and Project Management Software

[Zaphod Beeblebrox]

Ben,

I have found a couple of Freeware project managers and downloaded them for
people at work to try. I have not used them myself and have had no feedback
on them. They are KickStart, Minute Man, PlanBee and Projex. There are
plenty of others out there but these are the ones I chose. The price is
right.

I'm using Star Office 5.1 under windows. I think it is the same price
for Windows or Linux. Unless you are interested in learning an
alternative OS and turfing MS, I would recommend just the Windows
version. If you do want to dabble in the Unix like OS's then I do
recommend Linux.

I am impressed with the capabilities of Star Office. It contains a
spreadsheet, word processor, database, and the capability to read and
write most of the competing formats. I didn't know it had a Project
Management Component.

Regards
George
