if you have a family member who is in full time education you can purchase 
quite legitimately an education version from various places including 
software4students, just google for the site, or they infact I think sow as one 
of the sites you might be interested in when you view office on the amazon site 
- and there's quite a discount, I recently bought the full bloated office 2007 
ultimate for about £60.  you don't need an education email address or anything 
like that you do have to select the institution from a very long drop down list 
anything from primary schools to universities in in there.
 
well worth while if you do have kids or a student. licence coveres 2 machines.

Hi John et al -
 
Amazon are selling the home and student version of Office2007 for £49.60, 
sounds good value. I'm confused by my lack of knowledge though <smile> They say 
it comes on a CD rom, so presumably, there will be a license key on the box 
[they say it can be used on 3 machines at the same time], other office versions 
are described as OEM, which I always understood to be a preinstalled key, so 
how can they sell OEM versions of the software?
Thanks -
 
Andy

        Hi Andy, although I don't use office 2007 I understand from a friend 
that he bought his from Amazon for 60 quid.
                            John.

                Hi all -
                 
                I have a 60 day trial of office 2007 on this machine.; When I 
clicked the wizard for an activation code, I was told that to buy the Home And 
Student package, it would cost me 150 Euros [about £140 now] I only use Word 
and Excel, and not very much either, does anybody have any suggestions where I 
might best get a package from? Is just activating the installed trial software 
as good as any other way of getting the software? Isn't it really preferable to 
havbe a CD version of the programmes? -
                 
                Andy
