Eric, I have a hunch that Cosmi's Perfect Pro Office Suite may have struck again. Its for sale on Best Buys web page for $29.95. I thought they had been suitably shin-kicked over that 2-3 months ago? For the late arrivals here, they (Cosmi, whoever they are) have taken what appears to be a beta version of OOo 2.0.0, slapped it on a cd, and have NOT stated that it is a) GPL (or is that Suns CDDL?) licensed, and b) have not that I'm aware of, honoured the terms of the license, or c) have actually supported it, refering all questions to this mailing list. This list has understandably been reluctant to deal with its issues since this is an all volunteer list. A classic case of caveat emptor. Or a demonstration confirming that famous P.T. Barnam saying... Depends on ones point of view I guess. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
