Nah, I lived through the entire period. Human nature is the reason we had a Microsoft monopoly. Apple didn’t care enough. The Linux people wanted lots of distributions, and couldn’t build a consumer business model with a gun to their heads.
Open Office was, and is, a piece of garbage.
I wasted a lot of time explaining to people that if we all bought our cars from GM, they would suck. That’s what Microsoft was.
Just let it go.
Although, it sure would have been nice if the Amiga carved out 10% market share.
