Have you _ever_ tried to cross use Win-StarOffice and Unix-StarOffice?
Well, I have. It sucks dead hamsters through straws. StarOffice at
least in its incarnations 3.0, 3.1 and 4.0 (Thats the ones I wasted
time with) are completely unusable. Fonts, Printer support,
Compatibility to other office programs and so on.

'The Office Suite' in professional terms is defined as 'Microsoft
Office'. I'd like to see that for Linux.

Kind regards
Henning
