• Image and Video editing
10. “Office is a Lock…
…and the extent to which people decide they
need or don’t need Office drives a lot of other
behavior.
There is a big question around the future of
Microsoft Office and the future of the underlying
tasks that are being done by Microsoft Office.”
Benedict Evans, @cubedfm ep 14
