Who the hell said that? No one in Open Source community you can be sure.

I don't think you can say ANY open source software is bullet proof, but does
it really have to be? I mean what self respecting hacker goes after open
source software? No challenge, the code is right there! duaa.

OpenOffice, free, probably buggy, but still free. (Don't forget to donate)
Office 2007, $149-$599, probably buggy... crappy new file formats that no
one likes.

Uhhh...I'm using Mozilla strictly as an ng reader, nothing more.
It is also a browser, but I only use IE7 for browsing.
Oo is an office suite application, you moron.

Discovery? The only "discovery" I've made recently is that you
