Linux operating-system producer Linspire Inc. has found another way to challenge Microsoft: it’s offering its OpenOffice.org product suite and the Mozilla Foundation’s Firefox browser in a single package in retail channels.
Linspire, formerly called Lindows, positions its OOoFf package to directly compete with Microsoft Office. The OpenOffice.org product enables users to create spreadsheets, presentations, and documents using files in popular formats, including .doc, .xls and .ppt. The Linspire product also enables users to utilize the PDF format.
