If Microsoft did port MS office to linux, would you use it? I certainly wouldn't. StarOffice is free (except for businesses), has all the capabilities of office, and you can save in the office 97 format! In order for the linux revolution to continue, we need to cast away our dependance on Microsoft rather than port their products to linux. BOYCOTT MICROSOFT!
Due to the overwhelming success of the Linux Propaganda Event (as posted in December on Slashdot), the organizers of the event (myself, Andrew, and a few others) have started a Linux User's Group here at the university. If you are interested in joining (you do NOT have to be a University student to join), please email umlug-subscribe@umich.edu. If you are a University member who needs help with Linux, please e-mail your questions to umlug-support@umich.edu.
