------------------

Hi all,

Has anyone successfully done much of anything with Arabic and OS X (without 
resorting to Classic)? MS Office X isn't Unicode ready, so we have Nisus 
Writer Express, but the characters come out disconnected. According to the 
Nisus website, Panther may resolve this, but who knows when that will come 
out. Later this year, maybe. <http://www.apple.com/macosx/panther/>

Can anyone view Arabic webpages in OS X? Is there an alternative word 
processor, maybe OpenOffice, that works?

Thanks,
Laura
