[whunter]

Don't buy it, most people will hate this worthless PUSH trash from the Devolving MS.

It MUST download from MS = NO DVD, better have a super fast connection, lots of memory and a huge hard drive.

In other words, the bulk of PCs that run Windows 7 and higher.

I use "open office" which can read microsoft documents from other people, and costs nothing. been pretty pleased about it. Works just as well for me as microsoft works did originally

Libre Office is another free office suite. I stopped installing new MS Office apps here at work. I now install Office 2003 cause everyone liked that version of word, and Libre Office because its up-to-date and can open anything.

LibreOffice 4 is here!

Wrong. The pricks at microturd make it hard, but you can download a DVD image and do a full install immediately. Streaming install is NOT mandatory.

Would it be possible for you to share the DIY directions?
I am sure some members would like to know how.

At least for Pro, you can get the full installer here, and it will work with a purchased license key as well as an evaluation key:
Download Office Professional Plus 2013

Full install download, no click-to-run canine excrement.

I have been using Apache OpenOffice - The Free and Open Productivity Suite for years on my personal computers.

Thanks, I will try this http://www.libreoffice.org/ .

LOL... XP. we have some odd software requirements, and XP runs everything so we've stuck to it. I personally think the boss is more afraid something don't work on an new OS, more then the technicalities of the software actually working.

That's what I did. $10 and it works perfectly on my MacBook Pro.

Run an xp virtual machine that way you can get work done. Heh

I need to get office 2010, I can get a license for $10 through work. I'd rather go for 2010 since its stable and has had a few years of getting the bugs worked out. I've been using 2007 for the last three years without and issue.
