Hello All,
I have a laptop with Windows Vista HP. Some time ago the whole thing crashed and I had to reload it all, thankfully I had made a recovery CD, however,it didnt reload Office. So I signed up for a trial, which has now come to an end. I dont have £350 to buy the full monty!
Is there another way? i am using Openoffice 3.2 but I don't like it.
Any suggestions?

Are you a student or do you have a family member who is at school or college?
If so you can buy MS software at vastly discounted prices at Software4Students0 -

Thanks beardiedog, but no, I'm not a student, except of life of course.

No student proof is required so I suppose on this premise you could purchase yourself.0

Do you work for an organisation that uses Word, if so you might find they have a special licence so you can get it cheap. One place I worked for it cost us £51, current employer £8.95, no typo that is for Office 2007.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0
