Download StarOffice for Free from Google - Clipmarks

 clipped from cybernetnews.com
Google has taken yet another stab at Microsoft in hopes of luring users away from Microsoft Office. Now Google is offering StarOffice 8, which normally costs $79, as an optional download in the free Google Pack.
What surprises me the most is that Google chose to use StarOffice over the free OpenOffice. Of course I'm not going to complain because StarOffice is actually based on OpenOffice, but it provides some propriety templates and clipart that give it an edge over OpenOffice. And just like OpenOffice, StarOffice is created to run on both Windows and Linux.
Google Pack adds StarOffice

I did notice after installing Google's version of StarOffice that they had enabled a Google Search Toolbar by default. I'm not sure what kind of deal they worked out with Sun to provide StarOffice at no cost, but I'm not going to pass up a great deal like this. :)

I'll go ahead and close it up with a screenshot of StarOffice 8 Calc (comparable to Excel) and StarOffice 8 Writer (comparable to Word):

It's a matter of the ads being targeted to a demographic that the advertisers want. At the moment the video units program isn't setup for a target group outside of a few specific countries.
