  • The button to open a document in a local copy of Office is apparently IE-only, and some features will require the SilverLight plug-in.

      uh oh.  I'm not so worried about IE specific features or Silverlight only features as i am about MOSS 2010 specific features (MSOffice desktop and SharePoint-SQL Server).  Especially critical will be the OLE, VBA scripting, and data bindings feature sets. How will Microsoft move these stalwarts of the local MOPE (Microsoft Productivity Environment and Client/Server WorkGroup) to the Web?  The end game here is for Microsoft to successfully move the desktop MOPE "Point of Assembly" to a Web centered SharePoint-SQL Server MOPE.  And cut Oracle out in the process.

  • Of course, we can believe the "three guys without a garage" (http://www.robweir.com/blog/2007/10/cracks-in-foundation.html) that IBM, Sun, Google, Oracle and Microsoft are plotting together to destroy interoperability, while pretending to be competitors, with little ol' me as the evil genius in charge.

      rcweir is once again citing himself as the authoritative reference. This particular blog is filled with lies and distortions. The facts involved are thoroughly documented, and rcweir knows this. He lies anyway.
