I guess I soft-pedaled my disappointment with MSWord a bit too much?

I realize the stranglehold MSW has on businesses but considering how
aggressively Microsoft has arranged to even scuttle their own versions
of MSW to force purchase of each new version I see no point at all for
a Linux user to attempt to chase the pack and run a long third place
showing?

If MSW is a need then so is Microsoft like it or not nad you will have to
buy every single new version they sell like it or not.
