Re: Microsoft Office 2010

Pete,

While OpenOffice is 'cheap' and works well for independents and individuals,
when companies have invested in the MS technology, it is nice to be able to
support them. I guess that is why you have an MSDN subscription...

It seems there is always a conversation about MS charging for their suite,
but when the majority of companies still invest in it, it is here to stay!
