This entire page should be deleted. The distinction between "native" and "foreign" is really only valid with respect to a given application or operating system, and there are ways of making "foreign" fileformats into "native" fileformats given the right plugins, etc. Since this is a matter of configuration, and "OEM"-ness it doesn't qualify as knowledge but closer to "how my computer was setup by these people". I highly recommend this page is deleted. AJRobbins (talk) 06:37, 5 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
