Comment OpenOffice vs. StarOffice (Score 1) 233
I enjoyed the article, but I think I saw an error there. The article says:
At the moment, Sun's StarOffice suite and the open-source product OpenOffice.org--which is based on StarOffice--support the standard.
This used to be true on the first version of OpenOffice, after that, it's the other way around. StarOffice now takes a snapshot of OpenOffice, spices it up, and releases a new version of their software. I.e., StarOffice is now based on OpenOffice.
Cheers,
