“The irony is you could go out right now, and get a whole Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OneNote) for $120 at Newegg, and you can install it on three different computers. And it works great and has tons more features than Google Docs. And it has no ads. Imagine that!”

Comment of the Day: “Google Docs is Chock Full of Fail” – ReadWriteWeb

 

 This is very right, but yet so wrong… 

• Sharing documents in Office is a pain and yet so easy in Docs. 
• This calculation only works if you’ve three PCs on the same OS to install it on.
• Why can’t I pay Microsoft the dollar a month to avoid the up front investment?
• All this to keep a list of CDs or write the shopping list? 

Does Docs need to improve? Yes, massively. Especially in for large data sets and with graphics but they’re out of the gate and it’s the right price.
