I work for an SME
I've tried writing manuals in openoffice, but it's buggy and slow. Microsoft office is much faster.

Also, we made a Linux embedded product, but we're looking for a Windows CE or Embedded XP solution next, because the extra cost is minimal comared to the problems it solves, speed of development, and features it adds.

We've moved away from a Linux server to a Windows NT 2003 Small Business Server because the Linux server was a nightmare to administer in comparison, and NT server runs much much faster on similar hardware.

Sharepoint will also solve a lot of problems for us.

This product is very interesting. The article could have spelled out which versions of Microsoft Office the product requires.
We're upgrading our Microsoft Office in February, should we hang on to get Office 2007.. is it necessary for this product, or could you use Office XP?
