Linux? You are changing the operating system? Why? Those results are invalid. Benchmarking MS Office 2007 and Openoffice 2.4 on Vista, that is valid and quite interesting.


I just fired up Word 2007 on an XP machine (Intel E6550 @ 2.33ghz) and it started in less than a second. I dunno if you can get much faster than that ;)
