Excellent comments from everyone. No one seems to be talking about free online Office, is this not as big a deal as I think it is?

I don't think people know much about Azure... The fact that Ms will even atempt this really makes me interested. Supporting a product like office in an online environment takes the type of infrastructure most companies can only dream of... 

As a sidenote, if cloud computing like MS is trying works out of them, I think it will take a bigger chunk out of google than google will our of MS with its OS.

I am interested in starting to delve into the Live Services portion of the Azure platform.  If they offer some free bandwidth, I am gonna create a site with Silverlight and Live Services.
