It's a simple choice: those who shelled out the money for a Word
license can either try to force the rest of the community to do the
same by sending around Word documents, or spend themselves a little
more by buying an Acrobat license and thus allow everybody to spend
his/her money as (s)he sees fit.
Personally, I think Word should always be bundled with Acrobat, at
least in our community.
