Actually I like the idea of cross platform. According to Lux Magazine, Hanscom Office Suite will come on a CD (or two) and be cross platform. So even if a retail store doesn't like stocking Linux software, you would still be able to buy it.
I thought it was a good way of getting Linux stuff out there.
It is, but it isn't. :-) Here is my complaint with it in this case. theKompany uses QT for their apps, so they *could* integrate very nicely into KDE. However, since they didn't link the programs to KDE (so that they are cross platform), they do not use the KDE dialogs, the KDE print system, the KDE styles, or anything else that would make them seem integrated.
And, I also question, unless HancomOffice gets a lot better than the beta, why would anyone *want* to use it outside of Linux and UNIX?

I understand you now. You are correct. I forgot about them not linking the programs to KDE. Damn, that kind of changes things.
