In my opinion the issue is path dependency. Everybody in my generation grew up with Microsoft Office free on every installation of Windows, and teaching everyone new efficiency software is costly. It looks like Google is trying to win the next generation and Chromebooks are taking over the classroom. When today's youth grow up I wouldn't be surprised to Google Docs as the new standard. |

Microsoft Office is quite useful, and probably good value for money. But it has never ever been free, and I’ve been buying it for work and home since Office 4.x on Windows 3.1 was the new hotness.
