MS critisizes Openoffice for being ‘behind the times’.
No bad thing say I, as one Slashdot poster puts it:

“Precisely; it is remarkable the number of people who hanker back to the Word or indeed Wordperfect of the mid 90′s. This was a time before feeping creaturitis had led to a situation where the user could spend several minutes navigating menus looking for a particular function.

Sadly, if I were to be brutally honest, I would say that this is one area where OO.o really isn’t 10 years behind MS Office, it is jam-packed with seldom used functions, that however is the price of getting involved in a tick-box war with MS Office (which open office really has to).“
