This has been a strange conversation that I've abstained from- but I do =
have a link to offer that tries to explain why software (like MS Office) =
is so bad:

http://www.msnbc.com/news/768401.asp

And on the Apple comment- I recently purchased an Apple PowerMac to add =
to my existing PC network. I would not recommend it for anyone planning =
to use it as their Internet browsing machine. There are several sites =
you will not be able to use properly (i.e. most Java apps). For =
publishing and graphics/video though- the Apple can't be beat (within =
reason).

The latest edition of MS Office (at about $580)  claims that it fixes
approximately 1500 ERRORS in the earlier version. Couple that with the
lock-ups associated with the use of Windows and it is no wonder people =
are
searching for something that "works". Some people choose Apple.

My brief contact with Star (free) of two years ago did not make me
enthusiastic about Star.
