For all the talk about open office I thought maybe some people would appreciate that in a backhanded compliment a Microsoft VP admitted that openoffice is as good as office 97.

Of course I take issue with that. I don't see even office XP supporting PDF and Flash files. Heck it even has built in database features that are basicly the same interface as access uses but with a twist...it uses MySQL for the actual DB.
