The four colors of ink used in printing. Three are the primary colors of pigment.
Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and blacK.
This is opposed to the primary colors of light which are RGB (Red, Green, and Blue).

Well the compatibility problem with MS and OO should not be a problem. At all.
Any good-knowing IT manager who installs workstations with OO and Linux should be prepared for the situation where an employee asks, "I couldn't open the document Joe sent me. He uses MS Office XP" with the answer "Tell him to click on the drop down menu next to Type and choose Rich Text Format from the list, then send it."
OO *does* support RTF doesn't it?

Tell a webmaster that you use Windows XP and IIS as a webserver. He will laugh at you. Tell a large web hosting service to switch from linux to Mac OS X, and he will laugh in your face. Windows and Mac OS X are completely impractical for large scale server applications because their cost is way too high. Im not saying that people dont use these two types of systems for this reason, but Im absolutely sure the cost was much higher. Also when was the last time you heard of a Hollywood studio using hundreds of windows or Mac computers in huge render farms to create movies? My point is that there are things linux cant do, but there are also things macs and windows pc's cant do. Im absolutely sick of the comparisons. Use what you need.

This should also apply for all the linux fanatics who want to dethrone Mac OS as a desktop OS (although I perfectly understand why they would want to replace Windoze).
