Microsoft Works was a scaled-down Word Processor, Spreadsheet, and
Database bundle geared towards the home user. It was released in
variants for early DOS, Windows, and Macintosh. Microsoft Works
competed against FrameWork, AlphaWorks/LotusWorks, PFS First Choice,
and many others. Works was a completely different product from, and
even competed against Microsoft Office. Occasionally, Works was
bundled with a version of Word, to cover for weaknesses and lack of
popularity of the native word processor in the package. Microsoft
Works was discontinued in 2007, with the final version being 9.0.
