Submission + - Microsoft vs. OpenOffice.org file compatibility. (lineone.net) 4

TangoCharlie writes: "Since OpenOffice.org first released a free suite of office applications, I have been trying to get the various organisations to switch away from Microsoft Office. The argument against using OpenOffice.org has always been that it isn't 100% Microsoft Office compatible. However, it has been several years since Microsoft released Office 2007, and invariably if I send someone an docx or xlsx file they email back to me and ask me to send it in Office97-2003 format. My somewhat rhetorical question is, which Office suite now boasts the best "compatibility"? MS Office or OpenOffice.org?"

This ridiculous venture is exactly what is wrong with the world. If Osama Bin Laden want to strike
at the heart of what is wrong with the "west", Dubai is the place he should start. Seriously,
have these people not heard of global warming?
Even if they power this thing with solar energy,
it's still a massive waste... think of all the other things that could be done with that energy.
Jesus!
