I use odf whenever I'm sure that I will be the only user of the document. If someone else wants it, i convert it to pdf before sending it. I use.doc only if someone else might need to make any changes and doesn't have open office.
A German Star Wars enthusiasts' site (see url below) says, this could be old news. According to them, George Lucas might be talking about the the movie / tv series that were announced shortly after the airing of episode 3. In this case,they would take place between episodes three and four, featuring the development of side characters like Boba Fett.

I would never pay for it, but I got this OS parody via MSDN for free, so I gave it a try.
Sure, it ate my batteries, but this was not the worst. Try this:
1. Plug in a mouse, then "shut" the laptop. Vista goes standby
2. Remove the mouse.
Whenever I did this, Vista started the cpu fan (swooooooosh), showed the desktop (I guess, it was shut, but you could see "light"), played the "USB Device unplugged sound", and went back to standby.
I don't know if this has been fixed in the meantime, but this was one major reason to switch back to xp. I won't try vista again until service pack 5 or so.

So Microsoft did a good job. They did not only copy the gui, but also the bugs.
