May I know whom attacking MS Office?
Last time I checked, none of the online web two point ooh software can open big documents. These web-apps only match probably 20% of MS Office features and it's simply not enough these days when people are more tech-savvy than in the past.
- bootload 20y ago'... whom attacking MS Office? (sic) ...' every time I fire-up and use OpenOffice, I hear the 'cry' of another microsofty programmers` heart, breaking in two ... guess I fall in the second half.
- gibsonf1 20y agoThe point is not what Web 2.0 offers today, it's what Web 2.0 offers next year, and the year after. Whether you see it or not, the tide has turned. Evolution: -Mainframes as the computing platform (IBM) --- PCs as the computing platform (Apple) ------- the OS as the computing platform (MS Windows) (Where Apple missed the boat by only offering their OS on proprietary hardware) ------------- the Internet as the computing platform (Google) (where MS will probably miss the boat)
- BrandonM 20y agoIf you haven't heard about a free program that does everything that Microsoft Office does and more, then you should really be looking at OpenOffice. 1. It's free 2. It can read all Microsoft and open formats 3. It can export as PDF 4. It runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, ... (written in Java I believe) 5. It's open source 6. Various other features have been added which MS now adds to MS Office in order to catch up (like auto-completion).
- microsoftx 20y agoIt's buggy
- BrandonM 20y ago...and Microsoft's software isn't?
- rasputnik 20y agoFor 80% of us, that 20% will do.
