Great article and links to some very good discussions. Articles discuss the
placement of the MacBU in the home/entertainment division of Microsoft and
future ramifications. The question "Who is to blame for lack of Mac Office
enterprise support" also is debated at length.

Worth the time and certainly the price of admission.

The last link (Rick Schaut's blog) is a pretty good back and forth. Even
John McGhie got a mention there!

They are legitimate questions and I realize that finger pointing doesn't
help, but opinions and FUD certainly run rampant in a vaccuum. That is the
biggest issue.
