Office
1 - The Microsoft Office productivity suite has modernised the way people work, study and communicate. With the exception of Clippy (which few found amusing), Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access and Outlook programs have all become household names. The current version, Office 2010, features more collaboration tools.
Windows XP
2 - Arguably its most favoured operating system, Windows XP is a platform that focuses more on user experience, beckoning more non-geeks into the world of computing.
Pocket PC
3 - Giving users a powerful handheld-sized computer, this hardware specification by Microsoft spawned other brands such as HP iPAQ, Dell Axim and O2 Xda. Pocket PC-based devices offer touchscreen, memory card slot and Bluetooth connectivity coupled with productivity, personal information management and mobile communication capabilities.
SkyDrive
4 - This free file hosting service that offers 25GB personal storage started its cloud-based facilities in 2007 to allow users to store files as big as 100MB and share them with others. It also integrates with a host of other Microsoft products such as Bing (for files searching and sharing) and Hotmail (for files sharing, storing and editing).
Microsoft Tablet PC
5 - Microsoft’s specification of handwriting and pen-enabled personal computer was released in 2001. This subsequently propelled hardware makers such as HP Compaq, Panasonic and Acer to come up with unique, 12- to 14-incher notebook designs including slate, convertible and booklet.
Microsoft Arc mouse
6 - While Microsoft Hardware released many mouse products, the most memorable is the Arc which folds and hides its snap-in transceiver in place. Perfect for users who travel with their computing gadgets, this mouse comes in colours such as black, red, green, blue, white and purple.
