Microsoft banned to sell word

http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/158160what does that mean?

old news, and probably means nothing.

I still use notepad...

is a shame:(

i use open office =Pand notepad =P

I thought the whole copyrighted XML part was just older versions of Word, and the latest versions didn't even have it.

I posted this because my MS trial expired a few months ago, and now i use open office, but MS still nags me to buy their MS 2007 home and student. so if they are banned t sell their word, why are they nagging me and telling me last chance to buy under 100 bucks?

Banned FROM sellING Word.Forbid TO sell.
Prohibit FROM sellING.

... well, i don't like microsoft office at all, I'm slowly moving to open office which is better

Screw you i4i you damn canadian company.... so sure you had the patent for the XML file...... SO?! THAT DOESNT PROVE YOURE THE BIG BOSS EH?! WISEGUY!!!!...... Whoooooooooooo.............

Only applies to 2007 actually. and the ban isn't global as far as I know.
