Jeff Raikes, the Microsoft executive most closely associated with the emergence of Office, has described the rise of the product as the highlight of his long career at the software maker, which will come to an end in September.
Global software giant Adobe has defended recommending local prices for its new Creative Suite 4 software packages that could see Australians paying hundreds of dollars more in real terms than US residents for the same products.
Companies building Web sites should beware of proprietary rich-media technologies like Adobe's Flash and Microsoft's Silverlight, the founder of Mozilla Europe has warned.
