You're assuming that one will have unlimited rights installing any programs on a cyber cafe computer. While this may be true for Win98 computers, most cyber cafes I've frequented of late lock everything except the "my documents" folder. Also, consider the amount of time I'll have to waste downloading a program -- zealotry at its best I'd say.
go to http://docs.google.com to create an odf document.
It would require a modern browser just like gmail requires and most of the cafe's have Firefox or a recent IE version which is enough to create a odf file.
Or is that a tough thing? May be you didn't know about it before then it is the right time to talk about it and start using exclusively Free Format content.
