Re: [libreoffice-users] Different opening times between Ubuntu and Windows7?

The people who run Microsoft habitually "sabotage" competitors - where it's
by the default setting to NOT recognise non NTFS partitions, or not allow
you to read or write from non NTFS partions - and anything that competes
with their cash cow - the always in upgrade mode "MS OFFICE" - unless it's
really a crap go no where program, they do seem to have a habit of kind of
making it that much more of a crap fest to use and work with.
