Actually IMHO the name SunOffice sounds much much better, especially in light of the fact that StarOffice has so drastically improved from when Sun first acquired it. (Star Office 6.0 was the first "major" improvement because it could be loaded in "slightly less than two big minutes"! Now OOo 2.4 loads in just a couple of seconds.) Sun used to sell SunOffice (at least in Japan), but stopped using the name after the StarOffice acquisition. Perhaps it's time to consider going back to the old name (also in consideration of the heavy entanglement b/t OpenOffice.org and Java/NetBeans)? As a side note, Sin-Yaw has decided to quit his adventure with the Asus 900. One of the reasons is its pathetically short battery life (130 minutes). Too bad, he should have waited a little longer, as I had suggested, and tried the Atom-based 901 (280 minutes battery life running at power-saving mode). Rumor has it that Acer has ordered 1 million of Intel's Atom processors. This market is getting interesting. This message posted from opensolaris.org
