Hi!
Switching to linux of course sounds interesting, if you don't need to
use any special programs, but, for instance, most of engineering
companies (like my company) should use windows, because they need to
work with microstation, autocad and other propriety cad software
documents. In this case, factor limiting switching to openoffice.org, is
lack of reliable PIM application. I tried most of applications listed in
this discussion and Evolution is only which at least under linux is more
or less useful and similar to outlook (which also is vary important to
painless switching), but porting to windows seems stopped. So, I'm still
with Thunderbird and "memory eater" Sunbird, other colleges - with outlook.

there should be a link in
big capitals on the web site, saying something like "WHAT
IS OPENOFFICE.ORG ?" and another one saying "FAQ about
OpenOffice.org". On the other hand, there actually IS a
link saying "New user & general info". That should be
enough, but obviously it's not.
Maybe it just doesn't matter what is written on the web
site, people will probably always think it's easier to
get answers by asking questions, no matter how many
people asked the same questions before.
Besides, Windows users are often incredibly stupid. Like
me for instance, I have been using windows since 1994 I
think. I have been hating it since the same year and I
still use the damn thing. Is that stupid or what? But I
promise that will change before the summer! Or something
like that.
Here is your opportunity to change now!
