Microsoft swipes at Google Apps
C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft has launched an attack on Google in which it seeks to dissuade businesses from downloading Google Apps.
The attack came in a statement on Monday, the same day Google signed a deal with Capgemini to promote its office-productivity software among businesses.
Capgemini, a global consulting firm, is to offer desktop support and installation services to large corporations running Google Apps Premier Edition, the premium version of Google's Web-based package. Google Apps includes a word processor, calendar and mail functions, and so is a direct rival to Microsoft Office.
