Who needs OpenOffice.org Write when you have troff?

Who needs OpenOffice.org Calc when you have CSV and awk?

Who needs OpenOffice.org Impress (PowerPoint) when you have troff and either mv or Uriel's macros?

Who needs OpenOffice.org Draw when you have 2nd edition draw in /n/ sources/extra?

Who needs OpenOffice.org Base when you have PQ (which I have not tried)?
(I have been considering writing a database for Plan 9 that uses distributed computing and possibly 9P.)

Who needs Java when you have Inferno and Limbo and Dis?
