If there were one, you can be sure that Microsoft would take
steps to corrupt their implementation of the ``universal''
format so that material produced by non-Microsoft software
would be unusable by Microsoft software.
Microsoft's goal is to create an effective ***monopoly*** for
themselves. People being the idiots that they are, Microsoft
is succeeding admirably.

This terminology is incorrect and misleading. It is not a
``PC'' problem --- the PC is the hardware on which any
software/operating system can run. UNIX (in the guise of
Linux) runs on PCs. The problem is the Micrsoft Windoze
operating system, which goes out of its way to be
incompatible with everything else.
