Hello,
I'm writing to inquire if anything can be done about evil ebay people
selling digital download versions of Open Office? It seems that there
are vendors on Ebay that have been selling Open Office with the intent
of deceiving people by promoting it like MS Office 2007. If you go to:
www.ebay.com
And do a search for "Open Office" you will find several hits,
including products that display packaging and media, but then post it
as a "DIGITAL DOWNLOAD".
I don't think it's right, what they are doing. If anything I at least
brought it to your attention.
Provided they meet the requirements for distributing OpenOffice, they're
doing nothing wrong, though I don't think much of those who sell only a
download link. Some vendors sell OpenOffice on a CD, which provides a
useful service for those who cannot download it.
All we can do is spread the word, telling people that OpenOffice is a
free download from www.openoffice.org.
