So would I, and many others here, but you still need a good word processor, and StarOffice provides that. Go and tell any company you will install them Debian, and they should write their documents with Vim, either in plain text... or a secretary to write a simple letter in TeX/LaTeX with Vim... no way! BTW, StarOffice debianization with alien (from .rpm) went smooth but, aren't there any native .deb package around?
