This is an article by Simson Garfinkle, in which he retracts his comments made on "The Connection"
on WBUR some two weeks ago regarding MS working on an Office port to Linux.

Of even greater interest is the fact that John Duncan, a the MS Office Product Manager has
set up an email so that users could ask questions regarding MS Office and Linux.
The address is in the article, which is a good read.

Funny how the article doesn't mention applixware.  Why?  Personally, I think Applixware  can do
everything MS Office Pro can do plus a little more.  I also think that the Corel full-suite, when
finished will also be able to do the same things as MS Office Pro (it does in Windows environment).  So
what am I missing?  Another 10 years of brand name identification with no advantage (remember when people
told up that IBM was the only personal computer in the world even though there was already much better
computers when the PC jr. was introduced?)?

Just my opinion,
