And of course, the nice thing about OpenOffice, is that it's available
on so many different platforms, Linux, Windows, Mac, OS/2 and a few
Unixes.  Also the OpenDocument format is supported by at least 3 or 4
word processors on Linux and likely in Word Perfect among others.  It
seems the only company that doesn't support OpenDocument is Microsoft.
