New Microsoft to drop support of the Macintosh?
Apparently the article linked below talks about the aggreement between Microsoft and Apple, made in 1997, will expire soon. Will Microsoft renew it, or stab Apple in the back and not renew it and drop support for MS-Office for the Mac?

If I were Apple, I'd start working on a MS-Office replacement as quickly as I could just in case Microsofts "knifes the baby"?
