Re: Word in 2010

It's a balance. Too many options means we get
hyperspecialized by toolset, and so face an upward
battle. Too few and we're stuck with a tool with no
incentive to evolve. Microsoft needs the competition
as much as we do, but if there's too much, we all end
up spending more of our time learning software that
does the same thing in different forms.
