Microsoft has, as expected, now released their latest version of Works. A software suite not the dis-similar to the large corporate favourite, Office, except it is more aimed at small businesses and home users. Its low price tag (at least in comparison to Microsoft Office), illustrates what you can expect from the package, more fluff than huff, but nevertheless a package which should fill a market gap nicely.

At the core of the five-CD Microsoft Works Suite 2004 ($99.99 list) is Works 7.0, comprising a database, spreadsheet, calendar, and task launcher. Also included are Encarta Encyclopedia Standard 2004, Money Standard 2004, PictureIt! Photo Premium 9, Streets &Trips 2004, and Word 2002 (not Word 2003, the latest version). Added to the suite are a Task Launcher home page, a project organizer tool, and over 500 new templates. And many of the individual apps are new versions.
