Hello, just a simple question, will Open Office 3 allow flash movies to

This would be the final straw that would break the PowerPoint camels

Thanks,
Mark.
You can do that now in 2.3.1.
I think Mark will find that nothing will break the PowerPoint camels
back for many people. That is, unless a program exactly emulates
Microsoft PowerPoint in every way, it will be seen by them as defective.
These people are used to the way Microsoft PowerPoint runs, used to its
bugs, and can make it sing. Since the company pays for the program,
individually they don’t obviously bear the cost of the program.
Similarly, try arguing with an enthusiastic COBOL user about the virtues
of the COBOL language. Essentially their arguments come down to COBOL is
good because a lot of people use it and it would cost to much to change
the system now.
