FYI, StarOffice 6 also does not have the integrated desktop and email client. The word processing module can view html pages, even from a web server, so it could double as a web browser, but I would not use it for such. The point is, StarOffice 6 is also faster than its parent, 5.2. AFAIK, the only real differences between SO6 and OpenOffice are the use of some proprietary filters (for MS Word, etc.) that Sun is able to include in StarOffice. In OpenOffice, the filters had to be rewritten from scratch. Dave -- Mother told me to be good but she's been wrong before.
