Microsoft to Bundle Office With Windows Into New "Microsoft 365" Service
Not aimed at me, since I am not in business. I am a private user of Windows, and one not to require this "Microsoft 365" bundle approach to marketing. I prefer to own, rather an ongoing subscription model for Windows.
Agreed...Office 365 is fine for me and does a good job proviidng what I need. Not sure why Buisness would want this offerring as we use Office 365 also there and that seems to be all that is required.
