Great news for Google Docs. It’s no surprise: Microsoft has absolutely no incentive to update Mac Office. They’re perfectly happy leaving OS X users with an inferior, bloated, slow, unnecessarily different version of a critical software package so they can say, “See? You should be using Windows.” And for the many people required to buy it anyway, Microsoft is making a killing selling expensive licenses for an ancient product that they haven’t invested much into for years.
