The developing-world models I've seen MS propose is for all PCs would 
contain a full but locked version of Office. Users would unlock their 
apps for, say, an hour at a time, using credits that would be bought in 
a manner similar to pay-as-you-go cellphone services.

How well a current version of MS Office would work on near-OLPC-sized 
hardware is a different issue...
