Barence writes "Sun's StarOffice suite has been mysteriously dropped from the Google Pack of free software. The office suite has been axed without any warning or explanation on the Google site. Is Google trying to drive more people towards its own online suite of office applications? Or has it been stung into action by Steve Ballmer's recent comment that Microsoft Office faces stronger competition from StarOffice than it does Google Docs and Spreadsheet?"

"Don't blame native speakers for complaining about your spelling when you are posting on a native-speaking forum" ... no matter how impolite the native speakers choose to express their advice?

The Troll called the poster "Idiot" for his spelling mistakes...
