Actually, I think I agree.  But even Marx had his Stages of Revolution.  I will
ally with Applix for the time being because I believe it will hurt Microsoft.

When the running-dog Microsoft bourgeois are brought to heel, and Open Source 
equivalents (like Gnumeric) become more viable, you can bet I will ditch the 
Applixware.  

If you think about it, any software company that champions Open Source software
is only hastening its own destruction.  Even MySQL will one day overtake mighty
Oracle.

Ah, that explains Applix's 5-pointed star...
