CNN headline News "alternative to Microsoft"
Well, Not quite understanding what the guest speaker was saying when it came to applications like Microsoft Word or Excel.

I've not personally ran into problems transferring Powerpoint, Word or even Excel tables to either Staroffice or Openoffice.
The guest speaker referred to emulators as a possibility.

I've never personally looked at a Linux or Unix computer to be inferior to a Windows based business applications. I find the windows Office Suite starting to show weaknesses in the bang for the buck.
