I think that's one myth that's doing more harm than good to the open source
camp, OO is not a patch on MS Office as anyone who uses it will tell you.
Its a fine office suite don't get me wrong, but being told its as good as MS
Office is just a plain barefaced lie (usually told by people who don't use
the MS suite).

Its one thing to evangelise Linux & open source, its quite another to trick
people into trying it with claims that just don't hold water. Once bitten
twice shy and all that.
