Is Microsoft Seriouse?

Not that I see Google competing strongly with Microsoft Office, but when Microsoft thinks that constant upgrades to software in a software as a service SaaS environment is a bad idea, then someone has to say something!

Most software-as-a-service CRM vendors such as Salesforce.com, Netsuite and Salesboom.com offer upgrades 4-5 times per year! This is awesome since new features, upgrades and bug fixes are more quick and are transparent, without the users having to deal with installation, upkeep, interruption in service , etc.

Microsoft never innovated, even the Windows user interface was stolen from Apple!
