I'm not sure how many of you know of Tom Peters, since he's not an IT 
person.

He is, however, the world's best-selling business author, and a hugely 
respected "top business consultant". The kind of person who charges £800 
for a one-day seminar ticket, and fills an auditorium of several hundred 
people at that price... and consults for some of the world's largest 
companies.


He's also a regular blogger. (www.tompeters.com)

 From one of his most recent posts:

"I've spent the first three very intense "days off" learning Microsoft 
Office 2007—which has #%$^ all in common with the '97–'03 version; I 
successfully side-stepped Vista 
<http://www.pcmag.com/category2/0,1874,1786052,00.asp>, only to be fully 
ensnared by its cousin. Hint: I am in a very bad mood."


I've commented before that the best possible way to get OOo onto 
people's desks is to point out that, yes, a large part of the cost is a 
steep learning curve, but you're going to have this is you "upgrade" to 
O2007 anyway....
