  1. Sun's hype machine is rolling... by heironymouscoward · · Score: 1, Troll

    With the reviews claiming that "StarOffice 7" is as good as the forthcoming MSOffice, and now this review claiming that what is essentially a repackaged Linux distro is a competitor for Windows XP... and the noise around MadHatter...

    It sounds simply like there are a couple of very busy marketing and communications people at Sun who have been calling in the tabs with their journalist friends.
