Not having M$ office is biggest thing holding back Linux form becoming mainstream.

There's allot more to it than just that. You are way over-simplifying the situation.
[gloworange]My question is, why would I want to screw up an otherwise nice install of Linux by putting M$ products on it?[/gloworange]
