The move will let Google create or offer programs that could take on Microsoft Corp.'s industry-leading Office suite.

Under the deal, Google will distribute Java along with the search company's toolbar application...

I use Open Office.  I doubt today's hyped news is a threat to MS Office.  Sad

Re: Google and Sun Microsystems Join to Challenge Microsoft Office
Further Analysis of the deal:

http://networks.silicon.com/webwatch/0,3...040,00.htm

Quote:The software the companies are working on all directly compete with Microsoft - for example, Java provides an alternative programming foundation to Windows and Microsoft's .NET, and OpenOffice competes directly with Microsoft Office. The Google Toolbar, meanwhile, leads to Google's services and not those Microsoft is trying to promote through MSN.

I too use OpenOffice and I love it.

Many don't know that OO is based on the Star Office program originally from Sun. Also Sun is a supporting partner of the OpenOffice program.
