HI all

I am building 3 new computers for one of my larger client companies.

I tried to purchase 3 Copies of Office 2003 from my usual suppliers and have 
been told that Office Small Business OEM 2003 is no longer available and would 
need to supply 2007. They can get it but the price has been increased to 
£189.00 from £126.00.  So, I first tried my other suppliers to be told the same 
thing.  Went back to my client who said no way.  What other solutions 
available.  What did I think about Open Office.  Any way they have decided that 
from now on they will go for Open Office and forget Microsoft.  Is this a 
suicide bid by Microsoft.  There is no way that my Clients will upgrade to 
Vista in the near future and are already asking about Linux.  At my age its to 
late to build the skill necessary to support Linux so may end up loosing a 
major Client.  Their accounts system is a specially built Unix system for 
Tractor Suppliers and it never causes them a problem, so they are already more 
than happy that Linux would work better for them.

Cheers
