Microsoft to offer free software

Yeah right, would normally be the response to a heading like that, but times are changing and it is probably all down to Google who have been offering a suite of software for some time now. So in order for Microsoft and as it happens all the other software players, they need to offer something and it would appear that this is what Microsoft are doing.
The corner stone of this software giveaway would appear to be photo sharing, email programme and some software, which is supposed to help people who keep web logs.
Yet it was only last month or so, it was Google who introduced a product called Star Office, so Windows live as Microsoft calls it.
At the end of the day the products that Goggle, Microsoft and anyone else offers for free ok, but the software is going to be available else ware for free too, so these companies who have made so much money out of us over the years are not really giving anything away, because there are plenty of open source applications out that are just as good.
Granted that these products may have bugs etc, but what software doesn’t?
