Free Accounting Software from Microsoft

November 15, 2007

I see today that Microsoft has launched a free Accounting software package for the UK market, with options to upgrade to a more sophisticated retail version.  Not the first time Microsoft has used this tactic, so I wonder if Sage will respond in any way?

There is quite a good report on the new release, called Office Accounting 2008, on Accounting Web here.  Interesting to see screen shots of workflow-like tasks and Outlook integration.  The Accounting web report says the download is available from msaccounting.co.uk but the link is actually http://www.msofficeaccounting.co.uk/ and the link to the free basic version download is here.


Knit Your Own iPhone

Are you in charge of mobile phones in your company?  Are you being pestered by senior management wanting to swap their Blackberries for an iPhone?  How about suggesting they knit their own!
