Much is made of the entrenched position of Office in the enterprise. Certainly IT wants to maintain control, as does middle management. Microsoft's move with Office 12 into workflow and potentially RSS will validate some upgrades, but just as Office 97 was driven from the home over the objections of IT, so will GOffice bust through corporate silos as IT attempts to wall cross-domain communications off. Whoever offers users more dynamic, relevant information flow will win. This is the Attention model, and rich has nothing to do with it.
How does Linux/open source/Free Softwaree/Hawaii play?
