Revamped Microsoft Office Will Be Free on the Web
Microsoft has created a chimera in its new Office 2010 software, part desktop software and part Web app.
This latest version of Office, which includes applications like Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint, is Microsoft’s long-awaited effort to modernize one of its most lucrative products and to thwart rivals like Google that are nipping at its heels with free Web software.
For the first time, Microsoft will provide a free online version of Office that lets people store their documents on the Web rather than on their personal computers.

Upgrade Office with Google Docs
http://mashable.com/2010/05/12/upgrade-office-google-docs/
Google Wants You to Upgrade Office with Google Docs
Google takes an interesting standpoint on Office.
Instead of claiming you should simply ditch Microsoft Office altogether and switch to Docs, Google assumes that most users already own a copy of Office 2007 or 2003.
But, instead of upgrading to Office 2010, Google says, you should simply switch to Docs, which, in Google’s eyes, is the perfect partner for one of the older versions of Office.

Collaboration Inside Microsoft Office
http://mashable.com/2009/11/06/docverse/
DocVerse Puts Google Docs-Like Collaboration Inside Microsoft Office
DocVerse brings the collaboration functionality of products like Google Docs to the 600 million users of Word, PowerPoint and Excel.
It’s a plug-in for Microsoft Office that adds this type of functionality to a new sidebar within Microsoft Excel, Powerpoint, and Word.
This sidebar is where all of DocVerse’s magic happens. You can invite friends and colleagues to collaborate on any documents. As you and others make edits, those changes are synced to the cloud. In addition to a hard copy, the plug-in automatically saves a web-based version of the doc that others can see to make collaboration easy.
DocVerse’s collaboration suite isn’t free, though. It’s $49/month for 10 users and 500 documents and $99 per month for 25 users and 1500 documents.

Google Pack, the collection of applications recommended by Google, includes a new software: StarOffice, an office suite developed by Sun. In 2000 Sun released StarOffice's source code, which became the foundation of OpenOffice.org, an open source project sponsored by Sun.
StarOffice 8 is a full-featured office suite that contains a word processor, a spreadsheet tool, applications for presentations, databases, math formulas and drawing.
