Article in The Register "OpenOffice files Oracle divorce papers"
http://class='extlink'http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/09/28/openoffice_independence_from_oracle/

Apparently since Oracle took over Sun, they have been less then forthcoming with Sun’s open source projects, including OpenOffice and OpenSolaris, as well as Java. The OpenOffice developers have created "The Document Foundation" and apparently have now forked OpenOffice and created their own office suite LibreOffice. Though they have invited Oracle to join the project. There is currently only a beta version of LibreOffice available for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows, but full source code is available for download.

For more information see their new web site: http://class='extlink'http://www.documentfoundation.org/>

This week is dedicated to collection of info about compatible/non-compatible barebones, notebooks and servers based on Intel Core i3/i5/i7.

Our database contains 344 records of botebooks and servers: http://ecomstation.ru/hardware.php

and 264 records about motherboards: http://ecomstation.ru/hardware.php

Major part of the models are not manufactured anymore. Post new reports using the web-form

ACPI.PSD version and switches? Which version of ACPI.PSD doesn’t work on this motherboard?

Which applications/drivers are not ready for this family of CPUs?

eCo Market - catalogue of applications for eComStation and IBM OS/2 Warp.

New eComStation users can’t find needed applications.

That’s why we have started the development of eCo Market.

Select the applications and tools, the program downloads all files from different servers. Install the applications distributed in WarpIn packages.
