RE: Is there a windows 7 64 bit version.

Gee whiz, guys & gals -- while these side debates are needed and aren't totally out-of-order, might I suggest that we stick to improving the product and skip the snipping and sniping? And BTW, this comment applies equally to other yuk/snorks/blaths -- please let's just get back to business, OK?

I feel it's a major waste of resources that OOo has been split up into multiple projects. We should unite. Much like Rails and Merbback in the day: We all realized that working together for a common good would be much more
