Parent article: StarOffice 7 is far faster and friendlier than SO 6 (NewsForge)

I can only agree. Rc4 is very nice indeed. Appart from icons, I can't tell the differencne between SO and OOo. Rc2 had bugs that prevented me from using it though.

SO / OOo Differences listed in the article:
Spellchecker (for more languages?), thesaurus, templates, clip art, 3rd party fonts, Adabas DB, (paper) manuals, support, CD with SO for several different OSes.

Surely having those integrated / installed automatically are worth some money? :-)
