Review: Sun StarOffice 7

Posted by michael on from the openoffice-rules dept.

ValourX writes "Here's the Internet's first comprehensive review of Sun's new StarOffice 7 suite. With the ability to export to PDF and SWF and greatly improved conversion filters, Sun's $80 office suite is more than a match for the upcoming ultra-expensive Microsoft Office System 2003."

  2. But isn't Sun dying? by the_haxorest · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I'm sure all of you have read the article about how Sun "lost the Linux Wars" in Wired Magazine, and for me it just seems like another desperate attempt by them to not go under. Now, don't get me wrong, If I had a company I thought was going under, I'd be desperate, as well. But why pick this when there are better OS's, and better (open source, even) Office Suites?
