Woof! Anyone else know anything about this? They've made it a little
confusing, but can anyone tell my why it would be $50 for a standard
perpetual single-seat (quantity 1) license and $90 for the "Enterprise
Edition" or $90 for the MSO plug-in? And can anyone explain what the "check
minimum quantities" requirements are all about?

And why wouldn't they indicate where it can be gotten absolutely free? Or
that it can even BE gotten for FREE! They're as bad as many of the other
skanky sites I've seen! I suspect all the rumors are now becoming true -
they're touting the product as though they were the developers! NO WAY would
I pay $90 for the bugs I know are present in it, especially the stoopid ones
that date from the early days of the program!
I still have MSO: I may be rethinking my strategies now Oracle's decided to
screw over everyone from the creators to the users. Perpetual or not, which
I'm sure they'll screw over too, it's not a good deal in any way.
And guess where they send you for support?
HTH,

First Orcale Open Office is a name change for StarOffice, which Sun
charged for. Second anyone is allowed to sell OpenOffice.org, if they
can get anyone to pay. Another example of this is IBM's "Lotus
Symphony" it is a modified version of OpenOffice.org.
