They chose an untested mod of a minority product, one that basically none of their current constituents have have access to.

Hmm none of their constituents can get to openoffice.org which has release for Unix (OSX, Solaris, ....), Windows, and Linux? Corel (closed source) plans to have ODF out by the end of the year and Star Office (closed srouce) already has it. Given the timeframe MS has more than enough time to impliment it themselves.

Face it youre pissed about a state wanting a really open format because it forces MS to either adopt it or be left out. Thats MS's decision to make they are not being forced out of any market..

Nope, just pointing out how ridiculous it is when these liberals claim they want to make it easier for people to access their data, then forbid the format that 90% of the people are currently using.
