Let's not make it political. We've all been attacked, it is pointless
to bring in the Unix vs Windows debate. Office, Windows, Unix, Linux, Mac
are all great as long as somebody likes to work with them.
I personally like Microsoft products, but I respect those who don't - and
expect the same respect from them.

The whole world will use what they are presented with.... the difference
between Win3.1 and Win95 is far greater than the difference between Win95
and GNOME or KDE... so actually it's only software availability thats
holding back IS departments the world over!
If MS gets split, we could have Office for UNIX sooner rather than
later too!
