The company went public in 1986 and has been valued at over $1 trillion on the stock market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company began as a software distributor, but in the 1990s, it gained a dominant share of the personal computer market. Microsoft&#8217;s success wasn&#8217;t based on technology but on Bill Gates&#8217;s aggressive, strategic marketing and dogged perseverance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And click here to learn Microsoft\u2019s New <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/best-ai-software\/\">AI Tool<\/a>, which\u00a0may help <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/microsofts-new-ai-tool-can-help-avoid-cyber-attacks\/\">avoid cyber attacks<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early 1980s, IBM asked Microsoft to develop an operating system for their personal computers. Microsoft developed MS-DOS, an operating system that would eventually dominate the personal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/top-laptop-and-computer-brands-to-buy\/\">computer<\/a> market. Microsoft received a royalty from each IBM PC sold. The company also retained the right to sell an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/32-bit-vs-64-bit\/\">operating system<\/a> to consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IBM was concerned that Microsoft would take control of the computer market, so they asked Microsoft to develop a new operating system. Microsoft and IBM agreed to collaborate on OS\/2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08-1024x432.jpg\" alt=\"Microsoft Office 365\" class=\"wp-image-228333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08-1024x432.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08-768x324.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08-1536x648.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08-624x263.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/All-Website-Post-Design_26-08.jpg 1939w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Microsoft Office 365<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-microsoft-office-365\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Microsoft_Office_365\"><\/span><strong>What is Microsoft Office 365<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The updated version of MS Office is called Microsoft Office 2021, although Microsoft prefers to use version <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/the-top-office-365-features-you-need-to-know-today\/\">Microsoft 365<\/a>, and various versions of the suite have been around since 1988, including MS Office professionals, students, homes, and multiple collections of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitechwork.com\/download-microsoft-office-2016\/\">MS Office 2016<\/a>.

Users can download the trial version of Office XP at the MS Web site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Microsoft released three service packs for Office XP.

When installed and running, Schedule Plus will automatically schedule and manage your meetings and appointments, and you can adjust the schedule for individual users.
