I have been paying a monthly fee to use Microsoft Office. With Office Suite 3.0 I can still open my old Word Docs and edit them, and it is compatible with Excel also. I haven't tried the 'Presentations' yet, which should compare to Powerpoint, but I am confident that it will work as well. Google for Buy Microsoft Word. In Australia, that brings up a site where you can buy just Word for AUD146, but at other sites, you can buy Office Home and Student for AUD124, which will also give you Excel.

Despite what big box store sales people try to sell you, don’t buy a copy of Microsoft Office. On all new commercial computers today, manufacturers install a trial version of Microsoft Office AND a copy of Microsoft Office StarterEdition.

Microsoft Office Starter Edition does NOT expire and is every bit as functional as its costly brethren. The Starter editions includes only Word and Excel. If you need PowerPoint or other Office components, then yes, you will have to pay for it, but for many, many users, the Starter Edition with Word and Excel is more than adequate.

If you buy a new computer, here’s how to setup the Microsoft Office Starter Edition:

1. Click Start –> All Programs –> Microsoft Office

2. Click the Use Office Starter 2010 button

3. Click green Open button on next screen

Purchase Microsoft Word

Word

4. Wait for Windows to install and configure the program

5. Click Accept on the Microsoft Office License screen

6. Click Use Recommended Settings option, then OK on next screen

7. Word will open and you will find access to both Word and Excel in your All Programs menu under the Microsoft Office Starter Edition folder.

8. Click the Donate button to the right of this tip to donate some of the $100+ I just saved you!! 😉

The easy secret smart businesses use to avoid paying Microsoft a monthly fee for Outlook, Word, Excel and Powerpoint.

Portland, Ore – Kudos for Microsoft in keeping the ability to purchase Microsoft Office outright. Clearly their company focus is on driving subscription revenue. They are not the only company to do this. But it is a double-edged sword. While it may make shareholders happy to see increasing revenue, it also puts the onus on Microsoft to introduce features and services that have value to business people.

Where Can I Buy Microsoft Word For My Laptop

Microsoft Office has achieved rare dominance in the professional world. A businessperson’s standing with customers requires presentations in PowerPoint and documents in Word. However, like Comcast, Microsoft products are not dramatically different than ten or twenty years ago. Bold and Underline is the same. Outlook contacts have not gained any more usefulness. Task priorities still do not handle Franklin Covey techniques. So why does Microsoft think you need to pay $12.50 per month for something you can buy outright for $229?

I have owned a business for 31 years, or as I commonly say, “through four of the last three recessions.” I pay hard costs when the economy is good and run lean during the downturns. I buy furniture, equipment and software that lasts, and then milk it when I need. Half the battle of staying in business is to survive the unexpected; the snowstorm that closed our office for two weeks, the 9/11 shutdown of all domestic aviation, the unexpected lawsuit and the IRS audit. Surviving the unexpected means when business veers to idle, our monthly operating cost drops closer to zero. You cannot do that if you are paying a monthly fee to a vendor that is not providing significant ROI.

Moore’s law ensures that technology becomes cheaper, faster, bigger and less expensive. The only rising cost I have is personnel and benefits which rise with the growth of the economy. If the features you need for Microsoft Office and Microsoft Windows is inherently the same, then it should be optional for you to pay for Microsoft’s expensive service model, not a requirement.
