   If you mean the fear of the odf alliance, you sure can.   Did you =
notice the very interesting comment from their managing director "He =
added that OpenOffice.org was not initially optimised for ODF, but will =
be in the future."  Isn't odf the native format of openoffice?  If
it's = not optimized for its native format, what is it optimized for?

   If you want to try out the new Microsoft Office beta 2 you should =
visit http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/default.mspx.  You can =
compare for yourself and report back to us here.
