    It was very niche, but it’s great for viewing docs or other light work on a system you don’t want to install a whole office suite onto.

      You can still do that but it’s through word webview. Some people won’t like that option.

        I don’t want to install “word webview” on a server in order to look at a large log file or peruse some XML.

          You don’t, it’s a browser. You shouldn’t be doing anything interacting from a server anyways.

            Ideally no but in the real world it happens, especially with with Windows Servers.
