"Word enables Outlook customers to write professional-looking and visually stunning e-mail messages"
As long as they're sending the e-mail to someone who also has Outlook and who isn't using the Outlook Web Access on their exchange server :)
Seriously though Microsoft's obviously trying to shift the issue to Outlook's use of Word when really the issue is how bad their Word engine renders HTML (though I do think "fixoutlook.org" picked the very worst example for their comparison). It's a good way to win an argument but a bad way to take product suggestions.
