Star Microsoft Office vs. OpenOffice Shootout
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Wed 14th Sep 2005 18:03 UTC, submitted by andrewg
Features, Office "As nice as Open Office Excel is for a free application, it doesn't even come close to the performance and usability of Microsoft Office Excel. There is no shame in losing to a commercially funded application, but no one should make false statements that Microsoft Office is bloated and inferior. The only remaining question for businesses and homes is whether Excel is worth the money and most have apparently decided yes." Update: OOo 1.1.5 has been released.

What's with reviewers who can't even get the name of a product right? It's "OpenOffice Calc," not "Open Office Excel!" Sheesh.

if you took care to read the review, you would notice that throughout the whole article the Calc is called correctly many times, and only once in the closing part the name was incorrect , that seems to be an obvious typo.

shame on you
