Well, as said, if *some* expert users would want to have a more office 
like feeling at work.

But for MS users, that is, potential OO users the skin makes sense since 
the look and feel one is used to may helps some people to feel at home.

Which is the idea. The Drupal skin was originally designed for use on 
non-public internal company sites. Well, now it has a buddy in the 
Mediawiki skin.

It wasn't meant to offend non-users of "other major OS vendors" though... :)
