 I'm not sure I would agree with that.  Xandros Business Edition
 includes Code Weaver's Crossover Office and will run any of the
 Microsoft Office Suite apps.  It also includes both Open Office
 and Star Office Suites.  It will also satisfy the CLA for 2003
 Server.

 I have configured the OCE to support my HP all-in-one connected
 to the network via a HP JetDirect print server.  Both printing
 and scanning are supported, but faxing is not yet.  Faxing from
 the console makes the latter more of a convenience than a necessity.

 Not sure what other deficiencies you might implicate for business.
