interoperability... the reason why a lot of companies are getting tired
of Microsoft is because they don't wanna get locked into using
technology that only works on Microsoft.  Interoperability is gonna be a
huge factor for linux in the future... like it or not, but even if
companies are gonna start using linux, they will almost certainly be
using windows somewhere in the office as well.  they will also have to
be able to communicate with other people who are using microsoft
software.  if linux systems don't focus on being interoperable with
windows systems, then companies don't really have a reason to switch to
Linux, no matter how good it is or will become.
