8 Worthy Alternatives To Microsoft Office
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft's Office suite of productivity applications has long been the gold
| standard for everyday computer programs -- and they've been priced that way,
| too. Sure, some users need that kind of power, but for thems that don't,
| bMighty.com's latest slideshow lays out eight cheap -- or even free! --
| alternatives.

Sales of Microsoft Office are already declining (not just the cost... because
Microsoft resorts to dumping).

,----[ Quote ]
| I can’t help but wonder if the lackluster Windows/Office results also can be
| attributed to Microsoft brass’s complete and crazy obsession with Google (and
| taking over Yahoo) has resulted in no one minding the Windows store. Kevin
| Johnson, the head of Microsoft’s Platforms & Services division seems to be so
| laser-focused on the online-ad business these days that he almost seems to
| have forgotten Microsoft is still in the software business, too.
|
| Microsoft execs’ claims about walking away from the Yahoo deal are nothing
| more than bluster. A protracted hostile takeover bid is just going to
| distract not just employees in Microsoft’s online services business, but
| company management, too. It’s not a pretty picture.
