Mandrake 8.2 PowerPack & ProSuite ship with StarOffice 6.0. And all MandrakeSoft can ship with StarOffice 6.0 OEM licenses (they already give them to all MandrakeClub.com silver members). Frankly, I recently made a comparative between StarOffice 6.0 and the latest version of OpenOffice and StarOffice is really better. Just two big differences : I never see Staroffice 6.0 crash, I usually crash (well... freeze) OpenOffice after 10 minutes use or with several .xls or .doc documents. Second difference, the import filters in StarOffice are *great*, while OpenOffice has big difficulties to import Microsoft Office documents. Furthermore, the font rendering in StarOffice is much better. And there is Adabas with StarOffice, which is a great tool :-)
