A Reuters article notes that Microsoft has begun a $6 million marketing campaign to sell Office v.X and that the company projects sales of 750,000 by next June.

Concentrate on getting that forum-server instead of trying to come up with actual news... good thinking :)
But damn... this is STILL a c***, biased article...
But we've learned to expect things like this from MacNN, no?
... on my Palm Vx ???
That's a good investment!!
hahah...unless they give a copy to someone in China.
(now now, I am only speculating on the news about increased piracy in Asia. MS has started a crack down (pun?) on its SouthEast Asia piracy abuse. Good luck).
It's interesting that the writer feels that Office is crucial to Apple's survival. I have a copy of Office 2001 on my machine but I barely use it!!! AppleWorks is a much more user friendly application. I know a lot of Mac users and several former PC users and the last thing they thought of when buying their Mac was that they could now spend over $400 for a new office suite package when they already had one installed on their new Mac for free. One reader called this story biased. I agree with this but I think the reason why so many people are biased agains Apple is because of ignorance.
whats office? o******?
Mac OS X compatbile and Windows and Linux compatbile http://www.hancom.com/en/product_service/office.html
I won't buy Office till it is under $200. Write your letters to Microsoft:

lets see $450 X 750,000 customers thats $337,500,000 who says the Mac is not a lucrative market ? ?? ??? ?? ? M$ just laffs all the way to the bank . f****** sickening. And everyone just puts their money out there as if they have to. Even sicker
If a buyer purchases an iMac with Office, Microsoft makes a higher profit margin than Apple.
Kinda sad in a way.
