Would be nice to have a native version of Applix!  I've been using Applixware
for a few years now and it has always been rock solid (I run the linux binary
on NetBSD).  I still have the X server speed problem I complained about, but
other than that, Applix works very well indeed.  I haven't upgraded to 5.0
yet, though (because I don't think I can really get an update here in Finland,
it seems I have to buy Applixware again and again (have bought it thrice so
far)).

Gnumeric looks good, too, but I haven't tried doing anything serious with
it.
