they best make something as good - and compatible with - excel.

OpenOffice.org is not only fully compatible with excel, but they go one step further and allow you to produce PDF documents from spreadsheets.

Until OpenOffice has an Outlook email client equivalent, it will be relegated to the "also ran" dust bin category currently occupied by Lotus, WordPerfect, Corel, and all the others that came before it...

I find OpenOffice to be clunky and I can already make PDF documents from Excel.

Linux isn't ready to be my prime-time desktop computer. It won't run DirectX 9 applications.
