That's naive. The vast majority of us have absolutely no control over
somebody else's desktops. What if you decided to start sending me MS
Word documents? Are you going to let me change your desktop? What

We need good conversion tools, that's all there is to it. We need to
play in their world, not assume world domination by making them change.
