"Software used to be something that you bought in a store
as a product, installed on your PC and then used until the
next version became available, when you repeated the
purchase/installation cycle. Using the power of the
Internet, we can make users so much more productive, not
only by simplifying and automating how they acquire
software updates, but also by using the Internet to allow
a particular application -- such as Office -- to function
in entirely new ways."
