    What you need is a Nintendo Wii with the Wii Fit game. That's the closest thing we have to a computer exercising for us.

    Not a very good grammar checker yet, but the annoying little green line is sure to satisfy any wish for the old. It's a really nice word processor, too
    The green lines in Abiword are cool, but they don't give you any explanation, just the green lines. Also, Abiword is missing too much functionality for me to like it. I like things like automatic bullet points.

    This is sarcasm right? I mean, I'm just checking. replace healthy with language proficient, exercise with compensate?

    Gee, I've gotten here, to the very subject that has been buggin' me and I discover that it was explored (somewhat) as a topic, six months ago. But still, it's not marked as solved...well because it hasn't been...how can I get rid of that green edit line?

    I wasn't aware there wasn't a grammar checker in Linux until now. I guess that shows how useful it is.
