A strange thing to do considering that OpenOffice.org is the GPL-LGPL version of the same thing and is free. I guess what Sun is doing is adding those little propriatary things (print drivers for specific printers, etc...) that OO can't add. Don't think that will be enough of an incentive, unless the drivers are for the exotic printers like the printer-scanner-fax combos, which may not have Linux drivers for a long time, if ever. SO 6.0 may be perfect for the SOHO, but it will have to offer a lot that OO doesn't to merit paying for it when you can get OO for free.

In the beginning, there was a command prompt, and all was well.
