hi richard, for what it's worth, i never ever use MS office. never have, never will. however, i purchased both codeweavers plugin and office bundle, simply to help support the wine effort. considering that their new code goes back into the GPL'd wine project, i consider the money spent as a donation to the wine project.
like how i purchased mandrake for a couple of friends to help support mandrake, even though i would never use mandrake myself. i guess my money didn't help mandrake very much though. :( btw, crossover plugin is *excellent*. i'm *very* happy with it. pete begin Richard S.
