Hi :)
I think it is not such a big deal now.  Back when Oracle owned OpenOffice and 
were being hostile it was prudent to get ahead of any potential threat.  I 
think it's still worth avoiding using Windows screen-shots.  MS are unlikely to 
cave-in so easily!  Mac don't have a competing product.  Well, not one that is 
a significant part of their income.  

So i think the only issue is about how consistent the chapters and guides are 
with each other and i think sticking to Gnu&Linux and Mac gives a reasonable 
result.   
Regards from
Tom :)
