Microsoft expected to unveil update to Office suite. Because Office 365 includes Office desktop apps in many of its plans, this is indeed an Office 365 Newswire-worthy item. Also, this unveiling is expected to occur on Monday and I don’t want until Wednesday to tell you about after-the-fact. Over 1,000,000,000 users await the news ...
