junk it and return to Office 2000

[Gerry Hickman]

OpenOffice.org, free stable and reliable.Did I say free?

And soon to have better memory management.

Is it more stable? Well it certainly should be; if you look at the inner
workings of Office 2003 and it's dependency tree and then look at
OpenOffice you can see the OpenOffice guys are planning and implementing
for the future, not just the next dumb press release (like we get with
Office 2007).

It won't appeal to everyone (nor should it), but the way I see it is
that Open Source and Open Standards are the future and right now,
Microsoft doesn't have anything to offer in that arena.
