MS Office now has at least 9 editions! Get yours now!!

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) seems to enjoy confusing the world by adding more and more 'differentiated' options for its Office 365 suite. The additional editions bring the number offered for businesses to nine, not to mention all the other ones for education, government, and consumers. - See more at: http://blogs.computerworld.com/cloud-computing/21851/office-365-confuses-and-bemuses-itbwcw#sthash.jgJU8iu5.dpuf

The article talks about Office on Android devices, which is of course Linux based, but more significantly

Microsoft might be reacting to increased uptake of Linux and cloud-based productivity suites by large institutions, such as universities and governments.
I would say there is definitely a market there.

Perhaps not but it may convince a lot of people to ditch Windows for a Linux distro if they are forced to use M$ Office.
