That's even more interesting :-))
Does it mean Sun is going to promote own office suite?
/read: go againt MS head-tohead? /
What I know from press and their site, Sun's intention was to sell StarOffice
as server-based office suite.
And give away personal packages "as is", without significant modification
after their purchase of StarOffice.
Can you give some more details what was presented on this conference? may be,
you have some slides from it? Or screenshots?
