  1. Comment - Mass. Secretary Attacks Open Doc Plan

    Nobody is saying they cannot buy Microsoft products. Microsoft can choose to be in the group of applications if they want to. Microsoft just has to add OpenDocument support in the next two years.

    This is about being able to choose from multiple vendors on an open format. The application itself does not have to be open.

    This will bring on multiple companies being able to compete on level ground. So far Microsoft doesn't like that.

    This move will allow more long term freedom. Instead of upgrading to newer versions from the same vendor all of the time, this will allow you to re-evaluate ALL vendors, with little fear of getting tied to one for the long haul.
