Congratulations OpenOffice -- 100 MILLION Downloads
This is a very impressive impressive milestone for OpenOffice! As this article states:
"Demand for Apache OpenOffice 4.0 averages one million downloads per week, according to Apache, and a factor in its success is the large number of extensions and templates available, hosted on the SourceForge site."
Too bad Sun Microsystems never figured out how to monetize OpenOffice....
Just found this in one of my blog drafts is why this just went out.
