Did you hear... no more Word for Microsoft

Tweet

Am I truly surprise that Microsoft violated a patent in order to get word working? Of course not, things like this probably happen a ton in the computer world and it does take awhile to really notice they hey someone is stealing your stuff. But since Microsoft won't be able to sell Word in January how do you think that will affect places like Best Buy and other main electronic stores that sell computers as well. Is there going to be a decrease in sells and is it bad it's happening in this economy? Or do you think most people have a copy of word to begin with and they'll be fine? I know I'm going to be buying my word update for my Mac before that date comes upon because who knows how long its going to take Microsoft to revamp their program. And the worse part is when they do revamp the program it might not be compatible with pass word programs - but it makes other people buy a new product! http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/158160
