At the outset, this article was written in OpenOffice Writer - a word processor comparable to Microsoft Word. The Writer is just one part of the suite called OpenOffice.org - touted as "open source" competition to Microsoft Office.
The original version was slow and clunky. However, with the latest version (2.0), OpenOffice.org has made it worthwhile to be written about.

Huh!, couldnt they have included a URL to the OpenOffice website at least. or maybe the omission was intentional?! i posted a comment there on why a url is not given, lets see if they approve it, I suggest others also post on it ('Discuss this article' on right side).

nice but it still isn't a serious competitor to MSO. Simply because the interoperability offered by MSO with other M$ products.
I hope MSO chooses to switch to ODF. We'll see real competition then :)

For the time being, M$ has declared they have no plans for ODF support in the upcoming MSO 2007.
