Their apps suck too
Their Mac version of Office is awful and way overpriced.
OpenOffice.org is just about as good. You have to run it
under X11, so it's very un-Mac-like, but at least it's free.
I'm still waiting for a nice, Mac-native port of OOo or
StarOffice.

I think the real reason they don't want to port to Office
Linux is that Linux users already have the best office
applications, and MS can't compete.
