Google challenging Microsoft Office?
According to this article http://www.internetnews.com/xSP/article.php/3553371 it seems that Google is striking at the foundations of Microsoft by collaborating with the creators of StarOffice to offer a form of 'Google Office' that should directly challenge Microsoft Office. With almost every type of major application under their belt at the moment such as email and instant messenging I'd bet Microsoft are kicking themselves to even let Google catch up this much on them. It's going to be an interesting couple of years.
