This puts me in mind of the "Political ads" running here in the United

look worse that you are. At least they go the name right, including the
.org. :>
Even if it is a smear campaign, it is imperative that the support links
and the quality of support is a "front and centre" policy of LibO.
Giving user support should show predominantly everywhere you go on the
site.
The underlying message the short video gives is that the support will be
hard to find when you adopt the LibO suite. We should beef up the
visibility of our support lines on our webpages so that this message
does not prove true to our website visitors.
It is a sad marketing technique being used by "that other company".
Support links are great but most medium to large business are not going
to wait for help on a mailing list or forum, they don't have the time.
That is what I see the 'ads' pointing to. Basically that if you use
open source the instant support, like a help desk, is not there. It is
not there and can not be at no cost to the end user. The OOo site was
links to paid support but I have no idea how often it was used.
