1284628	2012-07-01 10:23:00	heres a question if it craps out which it does do sometimes you are stuck unless you have the install OEM CD, you cant buy it, and unless you have the permission from MS to download as a OEM reseller its screwed. This is EXACTLY an example of why I prefer open source.	fred_fish (15241)
1284629	2012-07-01 10:26:00	OK, that is enough bickering. There are better things to do than get in a tangle over a program. Time to move on.	Jen (38)

Open office (and Linux) users are a bit like horse people, A bit mad, slightly weird,smell a bit earthy, But mostly harmless. They exist for us better folk to look down on, best not to stir them up, then you have to lower yourself in order to deal with them.	Metla (12)
1284631	2012-07-01 10:46:00	For those in my studies ... Those with laptops (PC or Mac) they just buy MS Office. I don't really know anyone who uses a Netbook personally but I guess they would just use MS Office Starter. I actually know no one who actually doesn't use MS Office. Maybe those who have iPads perhaps. Same with the OS.	Nomad (952)

The above mentioned person does nothing but advertise OOo - theres hardly one post thats made by the said person that doesn't push Open office . As I said before, theres nothing wrong with Open office, but it doesn't do everything, no one product including MS office does . OK I wasn't going to post any more on this thread but that was an attack at me personally which needs to be answered . I only post about OOo because that is what I feel I am qualified to talk about, you may call it advertising, some I would call promotional but since the research thread and being shot down over that I have not posted anything that wasn't in direct response to someone representing OOo incorrectly or as a method of solving a problem for someone . There is not much talk about OOo in general so I've only posted 113 times . There are many other people on PF1 far more qualified than I to post on the other topics and I don't need to stick my nose in for the sake of lifting my post count . By contrast you have over 15000 posts and promoting MS Office far more than I have Open Office . Additionally, I make no profit from my association with OO, while you, on the other hand are, iirc, a Microsoft Partner and so therefore, stand to profit from sales of, or services pertaining to, MS Office . It would seem therefore that any discussion by you about MSO should be seen as advertising that you stand to profit from and any dissing of opposition product should be viewed as strongly biased because of that . If you want a list of items that you can diss OO on and be correct, I can give you that list without any problem at all, it's out there for all to see . Like all software there are issues . Let's just bring up genuine issues and leave the imaginary ones and let's pull back the hyperbole a little . Bring up genuine issues and it will be noticed, our UX team is mining data off all social media and is collating it so we have a better idea of where we should be headed . Broad unsupported generalisations however take up time and just end up getting ignored .	Yorick (8120)
