I’LL GIVE UP MY WORDPERFECT when they pry it from my cold, dead hands. Here’s another reason why.

UPDATE: This post from The Comedian points out that .pdf format isn’t as secure as some seem to think.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Reader Matt Sitar notices something:

Your link to The Comedian highlighted a rather peculiar omission from the BBC article about Word. Both links mention the sniper letter from the Washington Post, but the BBC article failed to mention that the document was released in PDF format. As the UK government is planning to move to Acrobat (according to the article), this would seem an important detail.

Yeah, it would.
