OO.o is a general office productivity suite,


A number of products have gotten significant traction by being the package that was used in schools and colleges. Once the students graduated they wanted to continue to use what they were familiar with. Hmmmmm what the heck is 'a general office productivity suite'? Who uses a general office productivity suite? This description sounds like a hold over from a guy who bought an MS like package and gave it away because of a personal vendetta against MS. Not the sort of market planning that wins lots of market share. Rather than go head to head with a really dominant player in a market carving out a niche they haven't touched is the way to go. For example MS Office is a good product for an individual it isn't really a team product. MS isn't a strong player for large documents. It isn't a strong player for researchers and scientists. etc.
