Microsoft only 3 years behind Google

Microsoft have just released details of their online document suite, a lightweight version of Microsoft Office which will rival Google Docs - launched 3 years ago.

I can't believe it's taken this long for Microsoft to catch up with this, 3 years is a lifetime in the technology world. 3 years ago, I still owned a couple of VHS video tapes and listening to CDs!
To be honest, I'm not a big fan of Microsoft's new 'innovative' products, I use XP rather than Vista, and prefer Office 2003 to 2007. And I doubt the online Office 2010 will tempt me away from the simple and efficient Google Docs, but we will have to wait and see.
