Fedora Linux on the PS3

This is Fedora Core 5 running on the Playstation 3. And Ebay believes installing open source software on an open platform (as is stated on Sony’s site) is a “copyright violation”. Apparently they don’t understand open source…so my auction of this unit was cancelled without notification. Thanks, Ebay… And here is the new version of the video with voiceover explanations: www.youtube.com

Can I use the writing program Open Office to write a book?

I’m ready to write my first book (novel) but the only writing software my on my laptop is Open Office because it’s free. I’ve heard that authors like J. K. Rowling (Harry Potter series) used Microsoft Word to write.I can’t afford Microsoft Word and I was wondering if I could use the alternative: Open Office.

Thanks in advanced.

Side question: What writing software do you use?
