Agreed. > And, with only 4-5% of the market, "fringe" markets matter. Agreed. Nevertheless, I would maintain that Microsoft stands to earn more revenue from Office, than from selling eMacs and vi :-) While, I would also argue that Microsoft could generate a LOT more revenue by supporting a version of Linux with a custom version of Office, but that's another debate... In fact, Microsoft could probably significant reduce the 'risk' of Linux (I always love reading that), by supporting Office on BSD/FreeBSD. Guess what a business will then seriously look at?
