Yeah... I'm affraid OOo 1.1.3 has a bit too big memory foot print to be
useable on a 128Mb System... The whole OOo package should do something
about their loading times and their memory footprint... I mean, you
"only" open an app at a time, is it really necesary to initialize the
whole spreadsheet-like subroutines when you load writer? Couldn't that
be dynamic? (I don't have the slightest idea on how is OOo designed, so
I couldn't say).
