Windows XP does the job right. Linux on the other side, is anybody's guess on doing day to day jobs. Hell, I've seen an article where openoffice 2.4 doesnt preserve the formatting of documents created with oo 2.0. To my knowledge, ms office is very good at compatibility. So, stop complaining about windows. And who the hell uses 64 bit Windows anyway? Or linux? Nobody, really. stop complaining about an exotic version of windows. Windows XP does the job right.
