Microsoft is defending its Office Suite

Slashdot has a report that in a recent interview, Microsoft seems to be defending its Microsoft Office product by stating that Open Office is out of date! This is just another indication that Microsoft is increasingly worried about the emergence of Linux and Open Source software solutions.

In a recent interview with IT Wire, general manager of business strategy for the Information Worker Group at Microsoft, Alan Yates expressed the opinion that Open Office is at the same level that MS office was around 10 years ago. Supposedly only suitable for the single desktop, isolated user. After all, it doesn't even have an e-mail client!
