I run my own business.  We made the transition to ODF already and only come 
across the odd XLS every once in a while (in which it gets converted to ODF 
in short order anyway).  You can no longer apply for state jobs or exchange 
documents with state government here with MS-format documents except with one 
or two smaller bureaus that haven't joined us in the third millennium yet; 
it's ODF, PDF or the highway as far as Oregon's concerned these days.

Aaah, that wasn't made clear earlier.  It sounded like you were reinstalling 
because of something considerably more superficial than that.
