    If you have a valid key for Office 2007, then just download the equivalent trial edition (e.g. Home & Student trial for Home & Student licence) from the Microsoft website and enter in your key to convert it into a full version. Saves messing about with external or virtual drives. :)

    Yes, it's open source and free.
