Just like the much-ballyhooed open office software, which coughed up a whole bunch of #NAME's when trying to digest my Excel 97 spreadsheet. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is, there's no free lunch, and read the fine print.

Like the free ISP's that eventually went "pay to play". Everyone flocked to them as a broadband backup provider, and got pi$$ed when they had to pay.
