I agree, Steve (see my sig line). :-)

So what are the other apps? I'm guessing CompareWeb is Firefox,

Gizmo Phone is another creation of Linspire.  It's a Skype-like program that
lets you use your computer like a phone.  It uses a more open protocol that
lets other apps interact with it.  (Skype, I believe, is propriatary in that
regard.)  Gizmo works on Mac, Windows, and Linux.

If CompareOffice is crossplatform (like Gizmo, Nvu, Firefox, Tb, GIMP, OOo,
etc.) then ComparePublish can't be Scribus, unless Linspire or someone did
some porting I wasn't aware of.  Maybe that's why ComparePublish is "Coming
Soon" (as per the website).
