Yes, Abiword does kick butt. And this article at least begins to go beyond the standard but tired and outdated review line: that Abiword is the Microsoft alternative for those who only want to write "letters and memos." Fine. Nothing wrong with letters and memos. But it's been a long time since Abi was limited to the basics. We're at the point where it's harder to see what you *can't* use Abi for. I mean, you can get through graduate school with Abiword. So when well-meaning reviews repeat the old line, that creates a testimony hole that Abi users can pop in and fill. It's the ideal role for users who want to help the effort but don't program.
