Microsoft has Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 for Windows or Home & Business 2011 for Mac for $9.95 downloaded. Requires a program code from employers participating in the Home Use Program. If you don't know the code, click Don't Know Your Program Code? Military, select federal government, and select college email addresses work.
Shmeagle, Do you have a military, government, or educational email address? Most likey these email addresses end in .gov or .edu Your not going to be able to buy this deal without such an email address that Mr. Softy can verify.
This is the code for the Military. C4FAA257E3 You must use your Enterprise Email Account and not your AKO account. AKO email will strip the link to verify you.
My work email address worked just fine, and I'm not with the military, government, or a school. I think our enterprise agreement allows home use, so that's probably the deal.
I know Goob. I don't have it, but my wife is alumni at several universities and currently works at Chicago Public Schools. None of her emails are part of the program.
Got one via gf's address. Not sure if because her company is an MS customer or they are non-profit with.org. domain. The initial email msg was sent to her email address at work, she forwarded to me, then I paid with my cc using my name. As dizzymon247 says, you download a stub exe which then does the download. The page with the download link includes your license key. Might be possible to install from media if you have access to it, but not sure.
I tried this, and switched back to Office 2010. Microsoft killed off the ability to search Outlook and OneNote from the Start menu. The only beneficial upgrades I saw to the suite were in Excel, which has some pretty neat new features.
@I Like Deals, because its only $10! Thats like saying why dont you get a RCA LED TV when then comparable Samsung is only $10 more. No matter how much open source ppl say its just as good as Office, its not. Its just a knock off. Nothing original has come from Open Office. They just struggle to keep up with the updates microsoft puts in each new version.
I signed up for this last Friday, got my confirmation email and checked out the page where you purchase the software. I didn't complete my purchase and now I get an error when I try to access the purchase page again. Anybody else having this issue?
Nothing I tried worked.

The free office suites are, pretty much, just as good...

I've got every recent version of Office for this price through HUP
Type all my stuff these days with Google Docs, completely free and never need to install bacon challenged Microsoft DLL files that slow down your PC.
Maybe I should get this I've been using Microsoft Office trial starter on my computer for the last 3 years.

sweet deal!

In for 1. I hope they don't kill off the download links after a few years since it's a freaking installer that goes out to pull the file.
Why pay when you can have the it free. Check out Open Office.
