PC World - Although consumers and businesses are turning more often to Web-based software and mobile apps, many millions still depend on Microsoft Office to get their work done every day. The folks in Redmond want you to use Office wherever you go—on your PC, your tablet, and your Windows Phone handset. To that end, Microsoft is pushing deep integration between its desktop applications and your data, stored on Microsoft servers.
Microsoft has just announced major upgrades for OneNote for Mac and iOS. They're interesting upgrades and point to a future where Microsoft works on cross-platform development, offering everyone access to everything.

Microsoft Office is old, very old. Should it really be the number one selling point for an operating system released in 2014?
I simply use OpenOffice. It does the job fine for my (very limited) needs. LibreOffice is supposedly also a great alternative.
So Microsoft Office is nowhere near being a system seller.
If MS wants me to buy new systems, they'd go back to bundling it with Windows 7.
BIT: If you're considering switching to Microsoft Office 2013, you might be interested to know that the software will be getting its first big update when Service Pack 1 arrives "early next year".
