Will probably need to read the news first, but OOo is not compatible with
MS outlook or MS exchange. It might be other pieces beyond the file format
in itself.

I read this article this morning and it doesn't fit my experiences but
that it not the point. What is important are the comments that OOo
isn't compatible and no future plans. I guess OOo isn't spending
millions of dollars to sell the software.
I would like to know the compatibility issues in more details. This
looks more like an advertisement than a true statement.
There are also kickbacks in the form of free software for the employees.

“The first, with Open Office, is compatibility — sharing information
with Microsoft products, both within the organisation and with external
parties. A dual world is complicated and, whether people like it or not,
Microsoft is a standard.
“Second, you have no idea where open-source products are going, whereas
vendors like Microsoft provide a roadmap for the future.
“It’s about futures, planning and integration.”
