It is not a big priority because even windoze users often replace MS Office 
with Open Office as it works so much better than the MS offering.  Much more 
compatible with real world needs and it is even more compatible with MS 
Office than MS Office is!  I used Kubuntu and Open Office to translate older 
MS Office files to the new MS Office for an attorney downtown as the Vista MS 
Office would not read his old files.  He now has a new Kubuntu desktop in his 
office and is talking about converting his older two desktops also.  He 
already did install Open Office on his windows machines because of my 
demonstration of their capabilities.  I have even heard from a couple more 
offices, likely from his talking about his experience.
