Office Delayed, Too

What does this mean for Microsoft and its reputation as a company that can eventually ship software? What will this mean for office managers who have to plan upgrades and budgets? Will this make anyone look at OpenOffice.org?"

    Indeed... but remarking about lack of functionality that is hardly used by the OVERWHELMING majority is just trolling IMO.

    Mind you, your remarks about 'only edit with FrontPage' were interesting... talk about lack of public standards and lock-in!
