IBM Lotus Symphony: The Ubuntu Beta

After listening to Jim Popovitch talk about the Lotus Symphony office suite (and the subsequent version for Ubuntu) at the Atlanta Linux Fest, I installed the IBM Lotus Symphony Ubuntu Beta, a version specifically packaged for Ubuntu by IBM.

First, I went to the Lotus Symphony Web Site, clicked on the download button, and was sent to a page with the different downloads.  One for Ubuntu (at the top of the list!), one for Linux generic, and one for Windows.  Very cool!

The Ubuntu package comes as a .deb, and is around 170 MB to download.  Installation was quick and easy once the file was downloaded, and I was on my way.  Here’s some quick screenshots:

Thanks IBM!!!
