Re: Rumor: Microsoft Office for Linux!
Nah I changed my mind. I read that Linus said that 'If Microsoft ever does applications for Linux it means I've won.'
Fundamental Axiom of the Universe (aka Murphy's Law): Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong.
First Digital Deduction: Nothing obeys Murphy's Law so well as computers.
Second Digital Deduction: Everything go wrong at least once.
Third Digital Deduction: Things go wrong even when there's absolutely no possibility of anything go wrong.

Re: Rumor: Microsoft Office for Linux!
You may not but as you interact and share files with other users that do want office, you need to find a way until everyone agrees with you
