Part of the "dirty tricks" come from not understanding your customers'
needs. Most office suite users are only interested in file formats so
they share documents with others. In fact they would rather have on
"default" format. They do not care if the "default" format is an open
standard or a proprietary format.

MS has changed the doc(x) format several time which leaves users of the
older format out of luck.
