11. I have set up a number of clients...

...with OpenOffice as an alternative to Office. I'm now in the process of selling many on Ubuntu desktop. The only weakness in OpenOffice is a lack of an "Outlook" parallel. Yes, there are other Open projects that would fit the bill, but these corpoclients are so used to MS "wrapped" approach to doing things. An increasing number of private and business entities will explore these options, as the cost of constant upgrades to hardware makes them feel increasingly nickle and dimed by yearly "upgrades" on their software, that in turn, just bog down their new hardware.
