Office 2007 Professional retail

How does that compare to the New OpenOffice 3 which can open DocX files?

I suppose if you look at the fact that his users are already using office happily and there will be pretty much nothing new to teach them then it compares quite well. Also he's already paid for 30 licenses so might as well use them.

Never paid for the licenses, refused to give M$ any money.
No complaints from them using Openoffice the UI is not much different from Office 2000 which we've been using for donkey years.
 
My apologies;)

Surely you paid for XP or the OS?

Been using 2000 cause of certain software that kinda bricks on XP.
Plus we got that licenses dirt cheap, hahahaha.
We don't show much love for M$ over here and will always go for the cheaper alternative ;)

lol thanks, but it's not for me, it's for a client, and they insist on legal.....So legal they shall get, along with a T-shirt that say's "I just got bum-rushed by Microsoft" :D
 
As has been stated earlier in the post, it's not legal to buy either an OEM or DSP version without a complete PC. All you have to do is look at the EULA on the inside of the license box. Matrix and others will of course sell you the license, and your money is down the drain.

The right way, and the least expensive, is to purchase an upgrade license, and a copy of MS Works for each license in order to qualify for the upgrade. Corporate licensing might also be cheaper, will be interesting to know.

MS may not think it is "legal", but it is quite legal with me! ;)
 
I'll never pay for MS Office, it's just too expensive. Piracy or OpenOffice FTW :)
