As 9to5mac pointed out at the time, this suggested that Apple might soon cut the price of iWork in its other incarnations to zero, because charging for it while offering a free version through the web made no sense. Any PC user can run it, for free, through a web browser. But this summer, Apple finally brought iWork to Windows, in a sense, by launching a beta version of iWork in the cloud. It has long been available on Macs as well as Windows machines. Up to now, Office’s strength has been its ubiquity.
