Journal Servo's Journal: Sun employees aren't allowed to use Visio 5
Given my line of work, I've made friends with a lot of Sun and (formerly separate) StorageTek employees over the years. A buddy who works in pre-sales on the STK side of the house told me that his Sun counterparts were blown away by his engineering diagrams in Visio, because they've been forbidden to use it and instead only have access to OpenOffice Draw.
I'm all for shaking my fist at the Evil Empire from Redmond, but how such a large computer organization gets away without using Visio for their pre-sales and consulting arms is beyond me. Draw just doesn't cut it when you have to diagram power, racks, servers, etc, in a modern datacenter.

I have never used the open office one, but after using dia and visio I can say dia pretty much does everything I need to do, and it is always available since it doesn't cost anything and is a click away.
