According to him, yes.  He's been spewing the same nonsense for years 
now.  Never mind, oh, say, DB work or web hosting or network 
administration or software engineering or CAD or rendering or making 
movies or any of a million other serious types of work there are to be 
done, no, only using office apps, and specifically Microsoft Office apps 
- can be qualified as "serious work".

Which is about like saying the only "serious music" is made on solid 
platinum penny whistles.
