RedHat eCos quote not readable on RedHat system :)



I though this was sort of amusing...

I just received a quote from RedHat for getting our eCos port
certified.  I do all of my work on systems running RedHat Linux
(6.2 on some, 7.2 on others).  The document I received from
RedHat was... an MS Word document that I couldn't open using
Applix Words on my RH system.  I had to find a PC running
Windows with MS Office and print the document.

That's more than a bit embarassing for those of us promoting
Linux.  My recommendation to RH: send a PDF document so that

 1) It looks the way you want it to when it's viewed/printed.

 2) It is portable between systems and can be viewed printed on
    RH systems.
