My free trial on Office 2010 has run out.
Does anyone know where to get some cheap MS Office software?
Not too fussed on the most recent version, as I really only use word and excel.
Thanks

I'd with free4440273's link to LibreOffice. It's an offshoot of Open Office and many of the developers have moved to it. If Oracle - Open Office's new owners and the reason so many people left - ever agree to it, then LibreOffice will be renamed Open Office.0

Yeah. OOCalc refuses to follow some ancient bug in Excel. I can't remember the exact thing, but it breaks compatibility in lots of odd places.
On the plus side, at least OOWriter is a competent document processor. Word falls apart on docs > 30 pages, and lacks the tools for long, structured documents (although FrameMaker exceeds either app in these areas).0
