I've thought carefully before replying to this, but may I gently place on record that I suggest that remarks such as this are unsupportable?

First, this is an ad hominem attack, abusing the enquirer himself instead of addressing the query - which is surely always unacceptable?

Secondly, we should all recognise that it is very easy to misunderstand what is happening in and around computer systems, and we should avoid being dismissive with those with less knowledge or experience than ourselves. It does the cause of LibreOffice or of free, open source software generally - or of anything else - to come across as unsympathetic.
