That's 50 million users who won't be saving in a restricted, proprietary
*.doc or *.docx format.
50 Million users documents that will forever be readable.
50 million $700 payments *not* going to Microsoft.
35 BILLION DOLLARS!!!
$35,000,000,000 ....
That's a big hit in the bribery and graft, anti Linux corruption fund
