Presenting 2 bogus links does not give me any thing to have to present evidence against. Since everyone knows that MSO's market share is in the high 90%s, the burden of proof is on you. But, being the generous man that I am... www.cerna.ensmp.fr/cerna_regulation/Documents/ColloqueAntitrust2004/Vinje.pdf<http://www.cerna.ensmp.fr/cerna_regulation/Documents/ColloqueAntitrust2004/Vinje.pdf> (Note, this is a PDF - and it's a PDF done by someone who *HATES MICROSOFT* - so they'd have no reason to pad MS's numbers) Now here's a website you might trust: www.open*office*.org/product/reviews.html and I quote: "a genuine, head-to-head alternative to Microsoft's 95-percent- *market**-**share* *suite" http://www.smallbizpipeline.com/172301093 "*According to recent research by the Yankee Group, Microsoft's Office product line has an astounding 90 percent market share. Isn't it weird - the "Yankee Group" claims MS Office has a 90% share.... Now, add that to Laura Didio's 12%, and you've got yourself 102% - and that's without taking any of the other office suites into account. Unless of course, Ms. Didio was mistaken.... And, BTW, that article is a whole week old. You gave me two crap links. I give you 3 links, two from people who hate Microsoft, including OpenOffice.org itself, and one quoting the same "source" as your own. Next, -Chad Smith
