Open office is better than MS,but in general I think that Microsoft products are really very good for the home user.
Yes they are not as powerful, but everything kind of works if you don't want to do anything clever.
VPN works better too with XP.

there`s a good vpn linux client (can`t remember what it`s called now)which is just as non-fiddly as the windows version
but yeah I`d agree - MS for the cunts that they are have contributed probably more than anybody to making computing affordable
I just don`t like their flakey software - at least if it`s free and breaks, it`s no big loss .. but open office 2 is really nice (I thought 1.x was shit), and I definitely wouldn`t go back to regular office
once I get studio mx running nicely under linux, that`ll be me happy :)
