I think this is probably true for most users who work exclusively in one
European language. But for those of us whose work requires dealing with
multi-language texts, unfortunately, OpenOffice (along with the Linux
platform as a whole, along with its apps) is still in the Dark Ages
compared to the international language support MS began to offer with
Win/Office2000. Trying to run Mandrake with either Gnome or KDE and do
Asian language input and display an array of international fonts in any
kind of application (except for Mozilla) is still a hopeless enterprise,
and I never see improvements in version upgrades.
