If true, then this is a good news indeed. MS Office is still the leader by far in terms of productivity software.

As far as the Apple using AMD CPU rumors go, all I can say is thank God! If you read anything about the Fusion or Llano (I like to call "Llame") processors they're junk. Their CPU or power consumption benchmarks are nowhere near as good as Intel's.…

For the sake of competition, I'm glad Amazon is finding success with the Kindle but it makes no sense to produce an 8.9" and a 10.1" tablet. Just choose one, stick with it & improve it over time. If were them I'd choose the 10.1". Apple's …
