Domain Name Com's - Software : Microsoft Office XP Standard for Students and Teachers [Old Version]

- Best Office Suite---still your average microsoft
Well, undisputably, Microsoft Office is the industry standard in office suites. Its easy to see. This has incredible features, and is awesome in price compared to the full commercial version. However, it is not awesome in price compared to others. If you are looking for good price and don't need maximum features, DON'T GET THIS. go to www.OpenOffice.org and download for FREE an awesome office suite with tons of programs, not just your average wordprocessor/spreadsheet/presentation package. OpenOffice opens Word, Excel, and powerpoint files, so there is not a concern with compatibility.

Ok, Back to Microsoft. My second grip was that it only allows it to be installed once. Let me tell you my story. I got it before I had an internet connection, so it wouldn't let me activate it till I called. Then I had an awful computer crash, and my computer comany had to replace the hard drive. When I tried to reinstall, the program obviously thinks you're a criminal trying to use 2 machines. I was back on the phone, and I must admit the tech support was nice. Well, in short, have a reliable computer, some money, and want the industry standard, and you'll be happy.

- Good product and read here about activation woes (gone?)
Well, I finally decided to format my folks pc and reinstall all my software. Also decided to buy Office XP since I am a student and I qualify and I liked the price. Found out by reading these reviews that you can only install it once and have to beg and plead if your machine crashes and you need to reinstall.

I resent being treated like a criminal when I have legitimately bought the software. It is enough to make someone (not me of course =o) ) download an activation crack so that they don't have to beg MS to allow them to install software they have paid for. Interesting no?

- Disappointed
I like the functionality of this version of Office XP 2002 however as another customer has posted a caveat in his review, I did encounter a very rude awakening when I installed this version onto my desktop and then onto my laptop having read somewhere that it could be licensed for up to three computers. Well I was wrong. I do not recommend this product, no matter how attractive the rebate is. Its not worth the money. You're better off buying the full suite verson elsewhere.

- Purchaser Beware of Significant License Limitations
This version of Office XP does include the full suite of Office XP programs and does not require an earlier version of Office in order to install the program. It does, however, have two very important limitations. First, it is not a version that qualifies for upgrading to future versions of the Office Suite. This is a major limitation. An even more important limitation is that the program can only be installed on one computer. Users who have both a desktop and laptop computer are in for a rude awakening if they think, as most would, that it can be installed on each so that the program can be used when the other computer is not available.

Now for the biggest surprise of all. Students and teachers at virtually every grade level from K-12 through college also qualify for purchasing the full version of Office XP for virtually the same price as this package. Known as academic pricing, the Standard version of Office XP can be purchased online for about $155, and the Professional version can be purchased for about $185. These academic versions are full versions of the XP Suite, they qualify for future Office upgrades, and they can be installed on a desktop and laptop simultaneously. Why anyone would buy anything other than the academic versions from academic software vendors totally escapes me. As a point of reference, vendors such as www.academicsuperstore.com sell many, many popular software titles at significantly discounted prices. Don't believe me? Check them out for yourself. You will be pleasantly surprised. No, make that incredibly surprised!

- Dont be fooled
Dont be fooled by this product. What it doesnt tell you is that you can only activate it on ONE PC. You can't have it on a desktop and a laptop. Microsoft is such a JOKE. As if Bill Gates doesnt have enough money, he is ripping off students now.
