I have looked over the so-called top 10 reasons to get Office 2010. And for the life of me, I can’t get excited about any of them to the point I’d pay to upgrade from Office 2007. The biggest feature I would be excited about maybe the ability to work online. However, seen it already with things like Google Apps and others. Microsoft seems to be a day late and dollar short on that.

This is still in beta so maybe something else will leap out before release but if not then I’ll bypass Office 2010 unless I get a deal I can’t refuse.

Other Microsoft news is an OS codenamed Windows 8 due out in 2012. Before all the Windows 7 users think it’s another personal OS to shell out money, it seems that this 2012 OS release is actually the next Windows server group as a follow up to Windows Server 2008.

Speaking of operating systems, Google is going to release the Chrome OS based on the Chrome browser. It’s basically for netbooks and mobile devices and not a full desktop operating system.

And Sony is stepping into the online music game. However reports are that Sony will be a little more than music and most Sony electronics products will be access it. I would venture to guess that the Playstation 3 (or it’s next console).
