[dundee] Microsoft attacks open office

[Axel]

Awesome! That MS is seeing OpenOffice as a threat, means nothing more  
than they're fighting against OpenOffice. Gandhi has said:

First they ignore you,  (Pass successfully)
then they laugh at you, (Pass successfully)
then they fight you,    (<--Current status)
then you win.           (near future?)

Cheers! We're on a good way!
