Michael, Why??? Well it's good software and SUNW is behind it for starters. It's free w/Linux 6.0. Companies that use it will probably be interested in having it supported, something SUNW can and will do. EZ upgrades via the web, also free. I'm assuming (but don't know) that there won't be file-format incompatibilities w/ those in Office. Sun has released Solaris to the public, mainly under the "fair-use" doctrine in the copyright law. They normally sell the O/S with the hardware so I don't really know what an unbundled price for it would be. The price of Sun's systems are based on their perceived usefulness to the customer. Market dictates price.
