I am so happy with OpenOffice that I wouldn’t take MS Office, even for free.

Speaking of browsers (well, browsers that I actually want to use), Camino 2.0 was just released.

I only use it cos I get it for free. Its bloatware. Outlook 2007 is reasonable though.

Andy, Office Outreach how much do you get paid to troll the Internet looking for positive statements on MS products?

I work in Municipal government and I can guarantee you that 95% of the Office users use 10% of the suites features which is why most businesses and government can easily switch to OpenOffice or other Office alternatives.
