Yea, this is a balanced report alright NOT!
"The report is made by RambÃll Management, a Danish consultancy, on
behalf of The Danish Open Source Business Association (OSL). The Open
Source Business Association RambÃll Management estimates that the whole
of government (including local government) could save 550 million kroner
by migrating to OpenOffice.org and ODF. Thatâs around 94 million US
Dollars. Quite a lot of money for a small country like Denmark."
You might as well ask Apple if they make a better operating system than
Microsoft.
And BTW I think ODF is a GOOD idea.
