I'm not so keen on negative campaigns and I'm not so keen on specifically 
mentioning the opposition.  However I see what you're trying to get at

Perhaps a more positive slant would be: 

"Upgrade + upgrade + upgrade = $$$$$$

How about Free upgrades for Life?   Ask your software Vendor if he can match 
that
............Then come and get OpenOffice.org. Your Office Partner for life" 

Probably not best for our target market here but a really good marketing 
strategy all the same 

Filip Molcan said he has contacts with Photographic Stock firms.  He may be 
able to score samples if we were to ask nicely for specific scenes and they 
could then be bought as part of the campaign cost if we were to use them
