[ale] Google to distribut StarOffice for free

Just to confirm, Star Office is only free as in beer when used on Solaris 10
or when downloaded as part of the Google Pack. But the price Sun charges for
it is so low, particularly in volume, that it should be irrelevant.
Personally, I don't get any use out of the value added features such as clip
art and templates, but I can definitely see how one might.

The problem is that, much like Open Office, it is painfully slow on
Windows...and may very well be rejected by the general populace.
