Office 2010 will be free and exist only online? How times have changed …

Microsoft Office 2010

Microsoft Office 2010

Just when the future of its venerable franchise was in doubt this movie about Microsoft Office 2010 reminds us that the company can still afford top-of-the-line PR.  On the other hand it remains to be seen whether Redmond can produce software that isn’t bloated and crash-prone.

Whatever the answer, by the time the dinosaurs at Microsoft roll out their “finished” product they will already have had to compete with the likes of Google Apps, Zimbra, Zoho, LiveOffice, and much, much more. Maybe that’s why the rumored price for the next-gen office suite is $0.00; take that everyone else in the world!

Does anyone else think Microsoft’s unweildly size and sluggish reaction times have finally overcome its monopoly power?  Hey, a guy can dream.
