ComputerWorld: "It's possible to ditch Microsoft Office"


By jeremy - Posted on 14 April 2004

I have been waiting for the day that a major tech publication would say something like this:

Is today's OpenOffice good enough for the enterprise? For most jobs - word processing, presentations or spreadsheets - the answer is yes. Compatibility with Microsoft Office isn't a problem unless sophisticated macros are involved. Interoperability, the greatest hurdle to conquer on the way to adoption, is almost a nonissue. OpenOffice even offers features missing in Microsoft Office, like PDF or Flash data exports.
