And that is important. I believe M$ already released a Unix version of outlook ... give them time and they'll do the same with M$ office; if by then, there's not a good, well supported, better marketeered, office suite for Unix, we could see M$ products running in many Linux boxes ... not even Well's could have forseen such a dark future. BTW, are there any changes between StarOffice5.1 "pre-sun" and "post-sun"?
