Sal, I have Office 95 Standard Edition I bought for $199 in August, '95, when I upgraded to Windows 95 barely a year ago. Now I read that Office '97 will cost me $249 to upgrade. Do I need it? $249 is alot of money.

I saw it demo'ed at Comdex. I really don't care about most of the new features like autoformatting, or angled headers.

Why would a company pay for all these expensive Office upgrades, if they can install a SuiteSpot-based intranet and integrate their existing Office suite into Communicator for under $100 per seat servers, clients and all?

Communicator will be out about the same time as Office 97 will be for corporate customers...next month on Win32.

Seems like Mary Meeker is on to something here.
