I agree, but I have MS Office installed under Crossover Office on my
systems. There are times when I need to produce a fully compatible
document for Word, Excel or Power Point. For example, yesterday I
produced a 54,000 line spreadsheet. This exceeded the capacity of
OpenOffice (although OO.o was able to read it truncated). The same
document seems to hang Kspread, but came up very nicely in Microsoft
Excel. 
I do plan to obtain Office 2003 from that group. $20 is a good deal.
