still... one of many key factor why there is slow tide of migration from windows to linux is that there is no office or good-enough-office compatible app in linux. oh don't get me wrong. i love openoffice. i use it. if only we didn't need to share documents to people using Ms Office formats then its better than good. OO2 is just hell on compatibility with M$ office documents. and hopefully future apps will have odf plugins or turned/installed in by default.

those to this product as well.
