Perhaps you didnÂt understand the intention behind my posting: I want OO to beat MS...
But I canÂt deny that - just for example - ALL the symbols look like beeing drawn by programmers. IÂm a programmer myself and know that programmers most often donÂt have the inspiration to draw symbols that are able to be liked.
By the way: I follow the development of OO since the days of StarOffice beeing under the control of Star...
NOTHING has changed since years (despite functionality, but thatÂs NOT all a program needs to reach the masses). For example it starts with standard option to draw a grey rectangle around a new "word"-document. I hate this rectangle because of expecting a WYSIWYG-program. I just donÂt get that silly grey rectangle on any normal piece of paper. This option has to be a additional - not a standard feature. Otherwise you turn a WYSIWYG-program into bullshit that has to be turned into WYSIWYG first... Nothing people really like.
And: Please donÂt behave like most people getting confronted with truth: They deny.
Maybe many people donÂt see a difference because of beeing blind. There are many people existing that canÂt see a difference between car designs and anyway most really well selling cars have a good design. Also designs can be viewed in some sort of objective manner.
And: Objectively OO lookes like designed by children doing their first steps - not like designed by people who gave their lifes for really nice design...
Best regards
Compare to firefox: Clear, straight, nice. And: They ARE succesful. More succesful than OO. Now ask WHY?
