Colin G. Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) My version of office 2002 started to play up the other day and has finally bit the dust. I had a scout about and stumbled across this deal that seemed too good to be true, but I have tried it and managed to get a copy of Microsoft Office Professional 2010 with 90% off for £39!!The website is called software4students and as long as you can prove you have a student in the family you can get the deal. They do check as well and will request names and the establishment of study. You can either get it downloaded electronically or have the bundle posted out to you. I went for the download and it is working a treat, it also seems quite a decent version of office!!I know some of you have shown an interest in MS access before, so I thought I would put a post up Peck they even do a Mac version Edited February 18, 2012 by Colin G.

But as I only use Word regularly (2001), eXcel once in a blue moon, and Powerpoint never, I guess it's wasted on me! I do use databases a lot, but it's FileMaker Pro. Quote

Question... what do they qualify as 'student'?! Does it have to be a university person? A-levels? KS1?! Waiting list for nursery?!Next question - how quick can I adopt one?! Can it be like a sponsorship programme? send them 5 beer tokens a month and get the occasional picture and Christmas card... Quote
