Microsoft will face online fight on core software | |

| Time: 00:15 EST/05:15 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

The co-founder of Hotmail, the web-based e-mail service bought by Microsoft for $400 million a decade ago, is challenging the American software giants core $20 billion (9.7 billion) office desktop business. Yesterday Sabeer Bhatia released a free online rival to the bestselling Office suite of applications that will allow users to view, share and edit documents from any computer. The Indian-born Stanford graduate said that Live Documents would pose a significant challenge to Microsofts propriety software business, which eventually would be made redundant by the evolving internet applications industry. Office, bundling the Word word-processing, Excel spreadsheet and PowerPoint presentation tools, accounted for a third of Microsofts total revenues last year. It is forecast to top $20 billion this year. We are just a few years away from the end of the shrink-wrapped software business. By 2010, people will not be buying software, Mr Bhatia said. This is a significant challenge to a proportion of Microsofts revenues. | ||
