What a dumbass. Why would I check out Wine, VMWare, etc.?
I've been using commercial UNIXes since before Linux and all its lying
zealots even appeared on the scene.
Open Office sucks, period. Even Linus Torvalds uses PowerPoint.
UnImpress from Open Office 2.0 doesn't even support tables for crying
out loud. The best you can do is insert a Word/Writer document that has
a table in it. As you can imagine, that's unusuable: you lose all
control of colors, size etc. - if you resize the fake table, the
letters get squashed/stretched - how lame is that.
If you think Microsoft is paying me to say this, I can get you a great
deal on the Brooklyn bridge.
