-Just for the record -- Microsoft is not evil.
-Microsoft is a publicly traded company run by non-evil human beings who work to protect the company's market share and profitability just like any other company.
-I recently wrote an article for Wired.com [criticizing][2] Microsoft's attempt to foist a "open" standard on office software users, but in spite of what many readers seem to think, I don't think Open Office XML (OOXML) is a deliberate attempt to screw over users. 
-The problem is that Microsoft's best interests and users best interests do not always overlap. 
-For our tech-savvy Monkey Bites readers who'd like a more detailed explanation of how and why OOXML is not good for users, Rob Weir has an excellent post entitled [*How to hire Guillaume Portes*][1] that digs into some of the problems with OOXML in more detail.

-As I've stated before, if this were just a Microsoft specification that they put up on MSDN for their customers to use, this would be par for the course, and not worth my attention.
