OOo is so big so it is an exception, is it or *several* other
applications, making the choice easier.
...and it can be argued OOo is not "cool", is "useful", you do with
it
mostly boring stuff. It is also not integrated well in the desktop and
so on.
And two other arguments, one mine, the other from Jesse:
* The two main use OOo apps have replacements that are good and very
good (abiword, gnumeric).
* OOo, like firefox, is equally promoted on windows. So it's not a
Linux-specific showcase item.
But I think this line of discussion isn't as productive as discussion
about splitting the two targets of the current desktop spin and what the
requirements might be for having a successful demo-spin. Is openoffice
a requirement for that audience?
