Google Is So Serious About Software, It's Charging for It

Google has been nibbling around the edges of Microsoft's huge Office market with free, low-end, Web-based software. Now, the online giant is kicking into high gear, with software that is actually worth money.

For $50 per person, per year, you can get an Office equivalent (or at the least the same basic range of apps) along with calendaring. And you get 10 gigs of Google storage. Whadda you think? Have you used earlier Google apps? Does this model make sense for corporate America? Let me know at [email protected].
