Why do OOo users think this is right? What brain dead team of coders do they have coding this crap at OOo? Why are they more interested in incorporating features that other word processors may not have - and thus as a result lose the ability to have a usable product?
Don't think my rage is just addressed to the word processor which is the worst piece of crap I've ever seen (I now use the Mac OS X equivalent of Notepad for documents). The spreadsheet doesn't support formulas correctly, making life a real pain. The presentation software will randomly start removing elements from your presentation. WHAT THE CRAP! Again, how freaking stupid are these OOo coders? Are these the same idiots that came up with the JVM for Windows?
But wait, it gets worse.
Our good open source friends have decided to have mandatory use of OpenOffice.org legislated! Apparently not enough people will use this piece of crap on their own, so they have forced government employees to use this crap. Aren't government employees already unproductive enough? This BTW is the main reason I refuse to join the Free Software Foundation (FSF) - stupid crap like this that they actually accomplish.
FSF go back to what you do best, coding gcc. Keep out of our choices for office productivity software.
No, I will not be willingly using OpenOffice.org any time soon because I am forced to use it and it's a huge piece of crap.
