I second that. "It doesn't run MS Office" is probably the single biggest
excuse the average joe uses for not giving linux a try. Sure Open office
is great but it is not MS Office. Like it or no MS office is what the
world uses and knows. MS Office is the first thing corporate America
trains people to use. MS Office running well on linux is good for linux,
even if I will never run in.
