When Microsoft has the Windows 8 on the runway, Google's purchase of QuickOffice seems an obvious move of competing with Microsoft on mobile computing market. Why? Because, many people use Microsoft Windows or Windows Phone 7 only because they want use Microsoft Office.
So, if you put all the pieces together, it seems like, Google's acquisition of QuickOffice will only make the Google Apps offering stronger on mobile devices and will make it harder for Microsoft to make a dent on Andiod's market share. As many researchers are already predicting that Microsoft will overtake Apple in few years and will become world's second biggest mobile platform.
Seems like a very proactive and calculated move by Google.
