First Step... Migrate to Star Office or Open Office which avoids the largest part of the MS tax and show how easy the change is. Also give all staff to load SO/OO at home for free.
2nd Step go to Netscape/Mozilla or Opera for browsing and mail.
3rd Step take a kick back from MS as you change it all back or follow the path of righteousnous and install Linux.
Sun has broken the mold by gifting the code to openoffice.org. There are now only threats from Microsoft standing in the way of there being OO based products like Dell Office, Office HP and Big Blue Office.
This is a chance for IBM to finally extract revenge against MS. With no office revenue MS cash reserves will quickly start eroding.
