    I've just about got used to the (semifictional) measurement of monitors
    by diagonals in inches, and the capacity of printers and scanners in
    "dpi" -- but really, for OOo to make "letter size" the default page size
    and to have me adjust its margins in inches is a bit much for me to
    stomach.

    Mozilla's in inches, too. Bleurghh.

    Konqueror is set up for A4 and centimetres, but it refuses to send
    anything to the printer. Could there be a message in that? Is
    SuSEgnuLinux more ruggedly American than 'Doze, so I must learn to love
    these quaint, pre-Napoleonic units? Say it ain't so, and that I've just
    overlooked something simple.
