For maximum lock-in, you need to upgrade your servers too.
And also buy share point server, I think. But to just use it like Office XP or Office 2000, you do not need to upgrade anything. You are right, Microsft will stroke you and talk about all the brilliant employees you have conquering the world with MS Office, but in reality, they are typing memos and browsing the web. Well, the smart people will not take the bait. If you want options flexibility and reduced cost, you will avoid all of the lock-in trash. Really OpenOffice with Adobe products is looking more and more like a good way to reduce costs and get control of your business, rather than let Microsoft tell you what software you are going to use. Really, a good option is to stay on Windows for now but use OpenOffice. You will never go back.
