Wikipedia sucks eh?
So, you don't mind paying for information even though it MIGHT be wrong, out of date, and you MIGHT be overcharged... in lieu of something which is constantly updated, is free and except for isolated cases, is always accurate.
Wikipedia is one site which will get my votes everytime someone talks about 'right to information'. The internet is like television. You can't believe everything you read anyway. That goes true for everything, even encyclopedias and magazines. Unless you get views from several sources, you can't be sure, and that's why there is a talk/discussion section to every article. You doubt the credibility of an article, go to the discussion page, and read up what people have to say. STILL not satisfied, add your two-bits to it, and someone nice enough will look into it.
But please, don't bash something that is obviously out there to do good for people...

it really doesn't matter if its an appleworks ripoff or not. the fact will still remain that people who are on windows, will have a superior office suite for use, even if it steals/copies features, looks or any other characteristics from others.
what would you rather want? a whole switchover to a new suite, or your favourite features incorporated to the suite you've become used to?
and the UI? i think its the prettiest thing i've ever seen. how do you know it won't be easy to use, when its not even close to beta yet? im not an MS lover, to get things straight. i don't like the way they monopolise everything they do, but sometimes, there are people who just refuse to make sense.
understand what you're talking about before opening your mouth. microsoft sucks, agreed. but their system works, and that's whats important at the end of the day. you don't like it, don't use it. but if you can't say something nice about something, you really have no right to say something bad about it either.
thanks!
