Linux users will need a Microsoft Office license to use Office Web Apps
,----[ Quote ]
| Still, it seems to me that this licensing
| requirement will inhibit organisations from
| taking full advantage of what the Office
| Web Apps can do. The advantage of a web-
| based solution is that anyone can access
| it, both within an organisation, and beyond
| it if you choose to publish it on the
| Internet. I doubt there will be much
| enthusiasm for buying Office licenses for
| Linux users, though maybe the kind of
| organisation that has a full Microsoft-
| platform deployment does not have internal
| Linux users anyway.
