Thanks for those comments,

Readers' ratings are really valuable - in fact it could be argued that they are the only ratings that really count. We pride ourselves here on the thoroughness of our reviews but we can only go so far.

To really get an accurate picture of how a product stands-up to businesss use - we need the community to provide us with as much feedback as possible. That is a lot of the reason behind why we have made the changes we have to ZDNet.co.uk - to break-down the barriers between journalists and readers and allow people with information and opinions to communicate with each other.

The whole StarOffice, OpenOffice debate is interesting - think Novell are also launching their own flavour and will be interesting to see how that tastes given their tie-up with Microsoft.

Why do so many (virtually all) software packages think that they are so important that they have to be started automatically every time the computer boots? What is the largest number of "speed access", "update check", "camera download" and whatever other background programs you have ever seen running? Of those, how many did you really need?
