Because no major company wants to kill revenue streams.Why have one version that works on three OS's, when you can have three different versions of the same application that you can sell separately.Its business 101.

Best comment today!ODF is a great idea, but NO ONE is using it. Hard to justify the cost of adding it to iWork, right?
