Definitely. Though I often wonder how much Google's apps strategy is a direct-compete with office for now?

I have a sneaking suspicion it's similar to Microsoft's Bing strategy. It feels like Bing was created to annoy Google and keep them focused on search. Microsoft could afford to throw a few billion at something to keep Google out of it's bread-and-butter. It feels like Google's doing the same with apps.

Of course, given enough time to gain feature parity, both GApps and Bing could be true competitors.
