Look, I have used Macs since they were introduced. I do not like Microsoft, however, I can honestly say that Apple relying on M$ to use the "standard" office formats is fine with me. You have to be flexible, and you have to provide the customers with things to drive sales, regardless of whom that product comes from. M$ Office for the Mac is a necessity. It is the standard in the Enterprise, and more often than not, the standard at home.
Apple made a wise decision to get supported by Microsoft. Apple can & will always out innovate, and do everything better than the Redmond giant. That's why I love Apple.
Besides, before Steve came back, Apple was going down the tubes. He reinvented Apple. Look at the iPod. Look at the G5, okay, so he didn't meet his promise of 3Ghz by summer, but so what. We finally have a processor that is so much better than what we've had in the past, and plenty fast to boot.
