Should Window$ & Office be confiscated by governments to becomefree tools to all?

I use Open/Libre also. It is fine for Excel spreadsheets, unless they have VBA macros. However, still flounders often with Powerpoint files. So I need to keep one Windows PC next to my linux fleet. If Micro$oft Office was free back then, would there be anyone writing OpenOffice and LibreOffice? I frankly doubt it. -- @~@ Remain silent! Drink, Blink, Stretch!

How about pointing guns, canons and missiles at Micro$oft's head?  That's how you "make a huge bet on it?" There is a catch for this brutal method: prepare to dump EVERYTHING Micro$oft had produced, both her operating systems and applications!  -- @~@ Remain silent! Drink, Blink, Stretch!
