True, but if a Linux distribution wants to attract Windows and OSX desktop users (_IF_), OO is an essential package because it is what those users expect, an integrated office application suite that is compatible with MS Office. Regarding Ubuntu's Live CD, I once saw a post that they prune OO in order to fit it onto a CD; and that a further install is needed to pull in the full suite.
