Microsoft is seriously considering the possibility of releasing its office suite Microsoft Office for the Linux operating system in 2014. Michael Larabel insists on this from phoronix.com, though without indicating the source of the information.
Michael spoke about this at the Free Open-Source Developers European Meeting (FOSDEM) event in Brussels, Belgium. Immediately this news aroused great interest among Linux users. Unfortunately, there are no details, as well as official comments from Microsoft.
In recent years, Linux operating systems are gaining popularity, becoming increasingly user friendly. Already there are several free office suites with excellent functionality, for example, LibreOffice and OpenOffice. The emergence of Microsoft Office for Linux, on the one hand, will complicate the lives of open source developers, on the other hand, the competition will force them to develop their products, inventing something new and interesting, which is actually very good.
