Microsoft to separate Teams and Office globally amid antitrust scrutiny - eviltoast

Microsoft (MSFT.O) will sell its chat and video app Teams separately from its Office product globally, the U.S. tech giant said on Monday, six months after it unbundled the two products in Europe in a bid to avert a possible EU antitrust fine.

    If we clearly have to pay for.something, instead of it being wrapped into a license of so many things, I will push for us to take Zoom.

    It just works better.

    Annotating on screen is worth it alone, instead of trying to talk the screen sharer to what part of the screen you want to talk about.
