Mulling Microsoft Office For Linux

| Okay. The rumor's been out and about before. It goes

| Microsoft always says nay.

| A good source, a former Microsoft person who is still

| in fact, such a project.

OSDL said that Office for Linux is "inevitable".
OpenOffice, on the other hand, has decent feature parity,
it's free, it support standards, and it's crossplatform. It
has many powerful features that are not available in Office.
One could actually start a list of killer features that
make a move from OpenOffice 2 to Microsoft Office difficult
and undesirable...
