It isn't a dream ... it is a potential reality. Why?
Because:
1) AbiWord is smaller than mozilla =;-) (though we
are gaining fast with each new "feature" !)
2) AbiWord runs on QNX in Photon which is a
real-time system targetted at the embedded space of
which one target market are the consumer electronics
guys.
3) I've done it =;-)
