What's this thing? It's a way to access Office XP as a web based app, served up via citrix. This means, it'll look and feel as though it's on your computer, but it isn't; it's running on eserver.com's computers, it can save remotely or locally, and it can still print to your local printer.

It's a bit pricey I guess (approx A$600/yr) but hey, you always get the latest version of word, on any machine you use, with your files at hand (assuming you choose to save them in your eserver.com remote drive).

I'd really like to find a free or very cheap office suite (at least a word processor) served up over the web, but this is a start, pretty good for small businesses I think (especially if you trust eserver.com), and a sign of things to come...
