Most often cause of concern is that they already have existing Windows
based software, such as MYOB, or Excel based spreadsheets. Quite
rightly, if you had just purchased an upgrade for your MYOB package, you
would want a system that could use it. 

Although you can open a word document in, for instance Kword, if you
already had MS Office installed, and your staff where comfortable using
it, why would install another package?

If, however, a new business came to me for advice about installing a
brand new OS and application suite, and they were un-encumbered with
previously purchased application software, then I would suggest using,
say Redhat with open|star|k office that comes freely bundled. After all,
that's what I use for my business.
