"Of course, if MS Office were a separate company, there would probably also be Java and Linux and Palm versions of Office available for purchase."

That's looney.
What is the market share of Java, Linux and Palm as a consumer OS?

At this time I don't think any significant revenue could be derived from offering Office on those platforms. Certainly not enough to offset the cost of providing Office and support for those platforms.
