This means you can avoid the risk of having to compete with a proprietary modified version of your own work. However, in some special situations it can be better to use a more permissive license. ) ..........you can donate you can pay for (some awesome quality) support that basically allows you to use the beta version because the techs will usually debug the problems specific to you. star office I'm not even sure what the comparison is to open vs star if their is any. but i would think that it is a diffrent linsense system used by a company that can prostitute and advertise their software in hopes that someone actually sees it and buys it b4 they see the openoffice. yet another rant.......... carry on that does not make any sense….. open office piggybacked on the java platform for the longest time (and currently), originally it didn’t even use java, (in it’s baby stages,due to speed) open office was ALWAYS first and star is the one you half to pay for, notice that there is no way to buy a paid version of open office (notice the word OPEN in OpenOffice.org stands for open sourse aka GNU GPL lisense(Using the GNU GPL will require that all the released improved versions be free software.

MS Office is *terrible* for getting a nice layout. OpenOffice.org definitely beats it there, since it takes a bit from desktop publishing apps (like frames). Last time I use MS Office, it couldn't do wiki output like OOo can either. Has this changed? I know O2k7 finally caught up to OOo's bibliography support, but then they went and changed the interface so everything's in weird places. They all have their ups and downs.

Edeskonline.com is faster than the other online operating systems / online office apps that I have used. Google Docs is also quite a stable office app, but edesk has a package of all the most wanted office tools. its worth a glance. Hey, kalivds link seems to be pretty good.
