For the record, Oracle didn't kill OO on purpose, they just fumbled with it. Despite what they might have pretended in sales demo at the time, they've never been in the business of building office suites, let alone opensource ones, so they didn't really know how to deal with it.

Ironically, one of the most anti-Microsoft companies ever unwittingly managed to do Microsoft a massive favour.
