Perhaps because OpenOffice is a free (beer & libre) project, whereas Microsoft Office isn't. If you don't need the bloat/extra features of Microsoft Office, then why give Microsoft money for something you don't need. Shop with your wallet, and don't support products just because they're popular. Support them because you like/prefer them. -- -Austin
