ANNOUNCE: Binaries of Microsoft Office for Linux available!

[Matt Drew <mdrew redhat com>]

Greetings,

It gives me great pleasure to announce that Microsoft (r) together with
the co-operation from Redhat Software have made available their widely 
acclaimed and award winning Office suite for Redhat Linux.

We had been secretly working with Microsoft (r) Corporation over the past
6 months in order to port there Office suite to Linux, and we have
achieved our goal.

The Microsoft (r) Office suite for Linux, is distributed under a license
specifically designed for Microsoft (r) Office for Linux as specified by
Microsoft (r) Corporation and Redhat Software which gives legal permission
ONLY to users of Redhat Linux.

Users of the other variants of Linux systems are explicitly forbidden
legally from running Microsoft Office on their systems, and doing so will
render them susceptible to punishment of the highest degree as permitted
by federal law, or under laws pertaining to abuse of software in their
jurisdiction.

Binary RPM's are available on ftp.redhat.com and its mirrors. Please also
see the announcement and instructions on setting Microsoft Office to run
on your Redhat Linux system on our website, and also on Microsoft
(r) corporations website www.microsoft.com

The source code is not available to download as signing a non disclosure
agreement with Microsoft (r) was necessary prior to the porting of the
Office suite.

We hope you enjoy Microsoft (r) Office and make it your first choice for
high quality office work under Linux.

Sincerely,

Matt Drew
