MICROSOFT'S retooled version of its Office software is hitting the market as the firm tries to extend one of its key franchises beyond personal computers.
Yesterday's debut comes six months after Microsoft Corp previewed the new-look Office, which includes popular word processing, spreadsheets and e-mail programs.
The revamped Office boasts touch controls, just like the redesigned version of the Windows operating system that Microsoft released three months ago.
The company is trying to ensure that its products retain their appeal at a time when people increasingly rely on smartphones and tablet computers instead of PCs.
Yet Microsoft still isn't trying to get Office on the largest number of devices possible. Office 2013 doesn't include an option that works on Apple Inc's iPhone and iPad or smartphones and tablets running the Android software made by Google Inc. That leaves out most smartphones and tablets sold in the past two years.
