How many documents have I abandoned to oblivion because I couldn't convert them from star/sun/works/word perfect etc to office/open office etc..?
Didn't this start way back in the good ol' DOS days when Word and WordPerfect were competing in the late 80s? If I remember correctly, they purposely changed their file formats to try to keep their competitors from opening them while attempting to make their editor compatible with others' file formats.

Obviously, you don't watch Stargate. The Quantum Field Theory was disproven by the Tollans in Season 1 Episode 16.
