Hi :) On the other hand MS Office still does not support many features of LibreOffice yet either. Plus a LOT of the functionality of MS Office depends on you buying the 'right' bundle and then buying extra apps on top of whatever is included in the bundle. For example the Student's version of MSO doesn't include Publisher or Access. Plus their default formats rely on everyone using the same version and the same OS as the person that created the document and only really works on desktop machines. Plus all the security issues that MS documents and the app has suffered from over the years are almost entirely avoided by Libreoffice and all the other OpenSource office programs. Will MSO ever catch up on security or cross-platform compatibility? Regards from Tom :)
