The stock is pushing 80 1/2. How are they going to make money from StarOffice? Why would the ISP's pay SUNW to distribute StarOffice Suites? What do they make when you can download it for free from StarDivision! They will sell the server software to ISP's, and then sell a lot of server hardware to run it. They may even give away the software to drive the hardware sales. This response brought to you from StarOffice on Solaris (almost Micro$oft free, I'm running an X-server on NT). It's been running all day for me, without a crash. Eat that Bill Gates! P.
