Submission + - Stuart Cohen predicts MSOffice for Linux

wysiwia writes: Stuart Cohen, CEO of OSDL, said during an interview with vnunet.com (http://www.infomaticsonline.co.uk/vnunet/news/216 2570/microsoft-office-linux) at the LinuxWorld conference in San Francisco: Microsoft will release a version of Office to run on Linux within the "next couple of years". But when one reads the OSDL survey (http://www.osdl.org/dtl/DTL_Survey_Report_Nov2005 .pdf) about the "Top inhibitors of Linux desktop adoption" this "next couple of years" might mean quite a long time. This leads to the question, has Stuard Cohen read its own survey and how does he overcome these inhibitors so MS really will think about MSOffice for Linux.
