Thanks for the correction - hmm, this was moved to OT?

Anyway, biggest reason why folks (read: companies) purchased Windows 8 was mainly because of Microsoft Office. As a prior NeoOffice/J user (OS X), I can tell you that its compatibility mode isn't perfect with the Windows users. Not at all.

In my house, it's either OS X or Linux. I run Windows only via VM.

But I will say this... it's due time we start treating our phones like our computers. Let's put on there what we damn well please. Sailfish accomplishes this before the others, they might be onto something.
