Google Pack Adds StarOffice

In an attempt to steal more Microsoft Office users to downloading and using the Google Pack, Google has just added StarOffice into the list of available downloads, as shown in the above picture. If you don’t know what is StarOffice, it is an office suite that will work as much the same as Microsoft Office, but a user need to pay $69.95 for a license copy of StarOffice version 8. However, as Google offering this StarOffice for free on their pack, I am expected more users will be tried out this system.

Apparently, Google has a big plan of their Google Pack, and I just wonder will Google add any Web design program as the next application into their list of available downloads? Or will they charge this pack for a sum of money in the future? As Google added this StarOffice as the latest application in their Google Pack, can they create an entirely new market for the StarOffice?
