Microsoft has always had blatant ways of insulting users in-the-face
with providing you a ready-made letter (template?) to be worked on
complete with (their) reasons why their stand is good for everyone
when only they are the beneficiaries of their cause.
I expect those who'll be lulled by Microsoft's gimmick will be the
same gullible people who want their work cut out for them.
Does Microsoft think majority of computer users are already that dumb
(after using Windoze for sooooo loooong!) not to think first before
acting on their own accord?

Yeah it's confusing. I did some reading on this a few months back, and... whew.

I think MS Open XML is dead. It believe corporate Office license
holders  don't want to upgrade to Office 2007 when 2003 works fine.
