Just have to say...I have often been quoted saying the advent of OpenOffice.org 
was a rare case of "corporate greed aligning with human need". Safe to assume a 
high percentage of downloaders don't have $.99. I know we're all excited by the 
commercial potential of an unencumbered codebase, but let's not forget that 
this software has been localized by the community into *many* languages (65 
last I checked, but probably more now) just so local people would have a chance 
to learn to use computers without also having to learn one of the 13 languages 
MSFT supports.

Peace,
Danese
