As read in the PCM I got today: - The american department of Defense replaced MS-Office with 25,000 copies of StarOffice 5.2 (but we already knew that). Reasons: low price, high reliability, stability and performance. - A number of governmental offices have inquired with Linux distributors to investigate how Linux can be implemented as an OS for them. - The German dept. of finance considers moveing to StarOffice and Sun's Webtop-system to replace MS-Office. - A french scientific organisation (unknown which one) is also considering a similar step. These steps are good for Sun, that is active in Open Source, and promotes Webtop as a much cheaper alternative than MS's .Net options. Paul -- We will either find a way, or make one. -Hannibal http://nlpagan.net - Registered Linux User 174403 Linux Mandrake 8.0 - Sylpheed 0.5.3 ** http://www.care2.com - when you care **
