For those who haven't seen the /. article yet.  Turns out that the
rumours (that were "true this time") that MS Office was getting ported
to Linux... are in fact not true.

All in all I would say it's hardly surprising.  Did any of us really
think MS was seriously planning an Office port?

Here's the Mainsoft press release:

Winformant (who started the rumour) still insist it is true of course.
