Hi :) +1 to all this. The agreed wording, that keeps getting repeated, allows screen-shots to be taken in MS Windows. The wording also cleverly allows screen-shots on other platforms.
The perceived issue with MS is that MS Office is possibly their main income stream. People might buy 2 or 3 versions of MSO to upgrade that while only upgrading their OS once. If MS see TDF as a threat to that income stream then we can expect them to try to reduce that threat. Hopefully they might do that as fantastically well as they manage to build stable, secure products but we can't rely on that. Oracle fell 'easily' because it wasn't a fight they were particularly interested in but with MS its a crucial part of their business, especially if we get onto the Cloud or when people realise the Cloud is "a pipe-dream" and deeply flawed.
