  Anything but OO.  Last time I looked at OO, it faithfully emulated MS
Office's bloat.  Between...
  - the bloated OO code itself
  - the hard-coded Java dependancy
  - the need for PAM-headers (WHY ?!?!?) if attampting to build from
    source tarball

...I'm looking at well over a gigabyte of garbage.  If we're going to
complain about MS trying to ram its "standards" down our throats, at
least let's be even-handed and apply the same treatment to Sun and its
Java-mania.
