29-Jun-2010 Gster - licensing question: It says that 'One license allows for installation on as many as 3 computers' - not sure what this means in practical terms - as I'm looking to replace my existing computer - for example could I download office 2010 to my current computer, its replacement and then future replacements? My interpretation is that it does allow for this and that the 3 computer limit only applies to current computers. I've also seen something in the past about downloads being limited to 1 every 90 days or some such thing. What happens if you try to download to more than 3 computers? or if one of the computers breaks - does that count as 1 of the computers? Don't want to download it to computers that I'm not going to fet much use out of - and then find that I've used up my 3 computer allowance - if you see what I mean. Perhaps you direct me to a copy of Microsoft's licensing terms and conditions on this. Many thanks

simon: This software can be loaded on 3 seperate computers that is used for home or educational use. Giving full versions of Excel 2010, PowerPoint 2010 and Word 2010. For business use you would need to go the a retail or OEM version. Microsoft's licensing terms can be found on there site.

simon: We sell CD/DVDdrives on the site. Otherwise you can download a trial Office from Microsoft then enter the licence key from the box to activate the full version.

28-Mar-2011 confusedperson: Advice on e mail please - if I buy home and student version of microsoft, does this mean I can't get my current e mails via aol at all? Surely I don't have to buy business version just to get my normal e mails???

paul: Emails can be accessed by a Internet browser, with Microsoft mail (comes with Windows 7), or if you buy Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010 (T5D-00295) you will get MS Outlook.

9-Apr-2011 jennycook: I have MS Office 2000 , this has Publisher - no mention of this on the spec... If it;'s not there can I retain my office 2000 version please ?

paul: There is no mention of Publisher as it not included. You would need Office Home and Bisness to get Publisher at £159.97. It is possible to have other versions of Office installed on a computer such as what are suggesting to do.
