3. Office 2010 - The biggest news of all out of there Office 2010 announcement today is that there will be free versions of the Office suite software available online to all Windows Live members. Some could say they are canabalizing one of their own core business sectors, but there are gains to be made and they will most likely be skimmed down versions where corporate users will still want the desk top versions. The free versions will be ad supported so there is a revenue stream there.
I would say the main reason they are doing this is more like the reason that large supermarkets drop the price of their fruit and vegetables when a fruit n veg store opens nearby. Chase them out of business and then enjoy your monopoly again. I think MS are afraid of Open Office
