Dump Windows too, not just Office, tell that the Airbus CIO
Dump Windows too, not just Office, tell that the Airbus CIO. Airbus is a major user of 3D CAD software CATIA v5/v6. Unfortunately Dassault dropped Unix/Linux support, and at the moment only Windows is supported with CATIA. Airbus co-developed CATIA v5 with Dassault and was its biggest customer. CATIA was stuck in v4 on Unix mainframes and Airbus back then demanded to port CATIA to Windows NT4, and helped them with development, the resulting version was CATIA v5 released for Unix and Windows NT4/2000. Airbus should dump all Microsoft slurp incl Windows, not just Office, and force Dassault to release new versions of CATIA software again for Unix/Linux/macOS! Anyway Dassault will have to modify CATIA to support Google G suite as replacement for Excel interaction.
