On the release of OpenOffice 2.0, OOo has come up to (and surpassed) Microsoft Office standards for the working professional. If you want to increase the user base significantly, there are two things that I believe must be done first and foremost:
* Implement a ClipArt system to compete with Microsoft's * Improve Impress usability - see review posted all over online for suggestions These two things will increase appeal to the average home computer user. With that audience, OpenOffice will gain tremendous ground - but until then, the lack of ClipArt especially, will continue to distract attention from your excellent suite. Potential users, such as schools and families, need clipart available for projects, but without it they will continue to pay ridiculous amounts for Microsoft Office. Thanks for your consideration, Derek Meyer
