OpenOffice 3.0 vs Microsoft Office

Personally I am a believer in open source, but OOO just lets us all down. I mean its been in development for like light years and the best they could do is OOO 3.0???

For people who have seen OOO 3.0, its quite an embarrassment to the open source world. I have used both office 2007 and OOO and personally think OOO should stop calling themselves a suite.

Check it out...To compete with MO, OOO should atleast have the available softwares that are present MO.

Word = Writer
Xcel = Calc
Power Point = Presenter
Access = Base
Outlook = Not available
Visio = Not available
Project = Not available
OneNote = Not available
Infopath = Not available
Groove = Not available
Picture Manager = Not available
Frontpage ... ok I'm not counting that one...

OOO is not even half of a suite! There are basically no new features sing half a decade! MO is running circles around OOO. An then there is the performance of OOO. Lets not even go there; Microsoft's has 10x the features and still opertes and starts faster.

And they say OOO is catching!!! (speed of a snail)
