  I'd be willing to bet that they "know, like and demand" MS-Word
  ONLY because they don't know anything else, and that they've
  fallen for all of MS' media hype.  That is not a statement
  belittling them in any way.  Rather, it is a statement of the
  power of Microsoft to twist the consumer's perceived reality
  to their advantage.
  
  
  Show them what else is out there.  They'll be amazed at how
  much better the other offerings are.
