Comment M$ Office for Linux (Score 1) 545
The Microsoft Office suite is one thing M$ does that is done well at least for the average persons needs. I use excel quite a bit in the finance industry, and one of its mail advantages are the wealth of plug-ins for excel: Turboexcel, Mathematica add-in, ODBC connectivity, to name a few very powerful add-ins. The macro recorder and VBA structure is also extremely useful. - Certainly, Office could be drastically improved. One such way to do so would be to make a version that runs on Linux.
When (I refuse to say if ever) might I expect to be able to use M$ Office suite on Linux? You already make one for Mac, so it cant be question of yielding OS market share. It would also give M$ a chance to make some money from Linux users. When? When can we have it?
