    THIS is why Microsoft phones don't have moisture detectors...

    Too little, too late for this paltry cake. Like coming to the birthday party after the guests are all gone home. Besides, this donkey's tail is a real old game so this spin is pretty lame. The clown might've tickled the little ones till he opend his mouth, but they're all safe in bed away from this gnome. :smokey:

    Wasn't that still when it was Mac first? That was a nice version.

    Ahhhhhh... it'll be just like the old Microsoft. Nothing but a software company making applications for the big computer makers. But this time they won't get to see the early prototypes..

    Wait for it … Wait of it … Don't try anything else, we're working on it … It's coming soon …

     

    This is not FUD but pure MUD, Malicious Uncertainty and Doubt (certainly nothing to fear). I think it's a deliberate attempt to distract and stall widespread adoption of alternatives in hopes that people (well, actually IT guys, just can't think of the right word to call 'em) let corporate iPad users and then convince administration to shove Surfaces down their throat in the meantime.

    Office?  For iPad?

     

    No way Ballmer would have approved of that if he were still alive.

    Balmer is just saying this because he knows that Apple will release a revamped iWork suite for the iOS and OS X soon.

    And the iWork software will be free on iOS and also available in iCloud.

     

    Too little, too late.  Gone are the days when Apple would be dependent of Microsoft for an office suite.
