02/13/2004 09:16 AMIt took Gus Tsao nearly nine years to raise enough money to launch his
China-based technology startup, Evermore Software LLC. Now the
59-year-old immigrant is poised for an even tougher mission: beating
Microsoft Corp. in the Chinese market for office software, and maybe
taking a tiny bite out of the Redmond, Wash.-based giant's dominance
elsewhere. "Everyone thinks I'm crazy to take on Microsoft, but China
is not going to pay Microsoft forever with their prices," Tsao said.

05/18/2004 02:52 AMIt was just a few years ago that the conventional wisdom was that
Microsoft had won the OS war, won the browser war and (most
convincingly of all) won the office productivity suite war. It looks
like they're facing increasing competition on all of those fronts -
but the most surprising may be the office productivity suite arena.
Star Office/Open Office has gotten plenty of attention, but recently
we saw
IBM
launch their own hosted suite but the biggest opportunities may be
outside the US. Already, there are stories about China, Japan and
Korea working on alternative operating systems and applications to get
out from under the Microsoft thumb, and now Evermore is
launching the latest version of their EI Office suite which is
specifically targeted at the Chinese market. They offer versions of
the software in Simplified Chinese, American English and Japanese.
The one area where they might be causing themselves trouble is with
the price. They offer two options: rentals at $99/year or $249 for 3
years - which isn't all that different from Microsoft's own pricing.
If they really want to cause trouble, they should under price
Microsoft.

Microsoft Office Data Assistant for
Microsoft Office PowerPoint® 2003
05/27/2004 03:09 AMThe Data Assistant for Microsoft® Office PowerPoint® 2003 provides
an easy-to-use method of inserting and managing graphical data objects
such as Visio drawings, and Excel charts and named ranges into
PowerPoint presentations.
There are three basic features for the tool: inserting graphical data
objects into PowerPoint, saving graphical data objects for future use,
and retrieving saved graphical data objects for reuse. Because the
Data Assistant creates a connection between PowerPoint and the host
application of the data object (Excel or Visio), you have the option
of inserting the data object as it was saved or refreshing it to
reflect any changes that were made to the data object.

combines the components of traditional productivity suites into one
application. Users launch EIOffice, not a word processor, then a
spreadsheet application, then a presentation tool. Documents are
stored in a single file format and the application, written in Java,
runs on any operating systems that supports Java, including Windows
and Linux, according to Evermore.

Box Office Increase
Chinese Theater Improvements Work -- Big
Box Office Increase
04/18/2005 08:01 AMLast month, we noted that the movie industry in the US might want to
steal a few pages from the playbook of the Chinese movie industry.
While the American movie studios whine and complain that
they'
ll never get people to come to the movies, the Chinese movie
industry (where counterfeiting movies is a
much, much, much
bigger problem than in the US) decided to compete by
recog
nizing that movie-going is a social experience and coming up with
ways to improve that overall experience. Would you believe it worked?
The latest studies show
a huge increase in
the box office take in China last year. Movies are entertainment
-- but it's not just the content. If the industry worked on ways to
make the movie-going experience, itself, much more enjoyable, it
wouldn't matter if even they, themselves, made the content available
for free download. People can drink alcohol at home, and they do, but
they still go out to bars, and pay
much more to do so, because
it's part of the social experience. You don't see the liquor (or bar)
companies freaking out about all this "home drinking."

Microsoft To Bridge Office, Back Office

01/26/2004 01:10 AMMicrosoft continues to build bridges between Office desktop apps and
reservoirs of back-office data. The "Information Worker Bridge"
project now under way seeks to make it easier for integrators or
in-house developers to make Excel or Word de-facto front ends for
back-end accounting, ERP or other applications, sources said. In
theory, this would take back-office integration beyond ODBC drivers
and InfoPath, the Office application that lets people build dynamic
forms on their desktops that tap into back-office XML data.
