It isn't the people of Endicott or workers in this country. Sam. --- Please...do tell what this has to do with MS Office being ported to Linux by IBM? :) We're not debating whether IBM is a great entity or not...in my reply I never stated that, I said they care about business, i.e. CASH MONEY. We're debating whether MS Office being ported to Linux is a good thing - we don't have to use it, but obviously, the addition of MS Office on Linux is positive as it will lead more people from the general population to investigate Linux because they can fell "warm and fuzzy" knowing pretty much the only apps they use on Windows work on Linux. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
