    But they are also claiming that they have the sole licence to package it this way.

    If they have registered the name of their 'version' of the software, I believe the above information is true - and fully in line with the original license.

    Hmm suspicious of this one, since the original was
    from manns101
    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"It is not a Microsoft product - but it does everything that Microsoft Office does![/FONT]"

    and also:

    "The MX Office Suite core product is Open Office and comes with multiple other software pieces which all combine to comprise the MX Office Pro Suite. You get the full Microsoft Office functional ability, but you get it here at a huge saving compared to the actual Microsoft Office Professional product, which costs hundreds of pounds."

    So it's not Microsoft Office, but neither does it claim to be.

    Hope that helps :-)
    So does it comply with those multiple other software pieces licenses?

    For now I vote with my can :spam:
