MS Office 2007

[DramaQueenLucy]

I am needing a copy of at least the student version of MS Office, I would like to get multi user or something so I can put it on the kids computers....so they will not be asking for mine when they have reports. I have found the student version for $100.00.

That is the cheapest I have found it, unfortunately. I would love to find a deal on it.

I've been looking at buying this too for the same reason. Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but Amazon has it for $84.99. Check it out. Is it for multiusers?

Here is a three-user student version for $84.95:

Are you certain they need M$ Office? Open Office, which is donationware from openoffice.org has 85% of the same functions and can easily open, edit and save in the Microsoft formats (.doc, .xls, etc.)

 

OpenOffice can even be installed on a flash drive so they can work on any computer, including computer labs at school or at "Grandma's house".

However, if they MUST use Microsoft Office, the best deal is through the "Ultimate Steal" offer:

Apparently, Microsoft is going to start that up again on August 20th.

I agree... unless they are learning MS Office specifically, I would go with OpenOffice for free. It can save/read most office formats.

I purchased my version of MS Office 2007 (Student and Home version) at Costco. I think it was right around $100.

The school is requiring MS Office for an intro to careers course that DS16 is taking.

Have they set up any special educational purchasing arrangement with MS?

I got the whole Microsoft Office suite for $59 or $69 last year I think. They said it was valued over $500.

 

It was a special promo through Microsoft but you had to have a .edu email address.

You probably got it through the deal I posted above...

Not that I know of but I am going to e-mail the teacher today to see what can be done.

Newegg has it on special today!

I got it through microsoft's website after one of my professors told me about it. I was using Open Office and had problems converting some things for a paper.
