is Open Office Ready for University

[John McGregor]

I'm enrolled at Ryerson (Con-ed) and all major assignments have to be
submitted to www.turnitin.com which is an anti-plagiarism service. This
site requires Microsoft file formats, but it will not accept the Open
Office version of same ( I tried several times). One thing that might
take the bite out of buying MS Office, is that the student version can
be installed on three different machines in the same household (same IP
address at time of activation), so room-mates could split the cost. The
way that I got around the requirement was to log on to one of the
computer lab machines, do a 'Save as' of the O.O. document on my usb
drive, and then access Turn It  In.
