I'm an Office guy out of convenience - but I've never been able NOT to do
something similar in either of the two.
(I usually use LibreOffice on my Ubuntu instance).

If they really want it, why not make them buy out of their own pocket?
Not to make it sound cold, but it's a preference issue more than anything.
If they prefer it, why put that on the company's dime?

Respectfully,

Daniel S. Moran

We standardized on google apps in 2009. We also use LibreOffice and have
not purchased any MS Office licenses since. The latest Office we have is
2003.

We have a couple employees (one in particular) who whine about wanting MS
Office. Because they don't "like" something in one of the other options.
Or don't want to learn.

Any of you out there that get along without MS Office? Ever run into
something you can't do with either LibreOffice or google apps that Office
has?

Thanks.
