Hi All
We have just purchased a new laptop and need MS Word and MS XL for it. I have just found a site called Software4Students that is selling MS Office Professional Plus 2010 for £38 (recommended price £429.99).
Has anyone had any experience of using this site as it feels a little too good to be true? Although I am a part-time student it seems strange that you do not even have to provide proof of being a student to get this offer.
I would appreciate any reassurance from others, as from experience if something appears to good to be true, then it usually is.
Regards

I've found them good. I once had a long wait for some software because it didn't turn up. I had to wait something like 28 days before I could ask for a replacement but they sent it to me straight away after I phoned them.0

I purchased MS Office 2010 from them last year on behalf of my disabled son, i just gave them my details no special email address but i did have to give my son's name and name & address of school.
No problem for me.0 -

I got Office from them for my grandson. They had the option of 32bit on a dvd or download and a 64bit download only. As he has 64bit Windows 7 I ordered that one and had a lot of trouble loading it. Others on here indicated that there were problems with the 64 bit and the 32 bit was a better option. I downloaded the 32 bit and had no problems. If I was doing it again I would opt for the 32bit dvdI'm Glad to be here... At my age I'm glad to be anywhere!!
