Microsoft Word 2007

[Lynn]

We are planning to purchase the Microsoft Word 2007 program, and I was wondering if any of you know of where it can be purchased cheaply?
Thanks for any advice that you can give. :)

If you checkout www.newegg.com you might be able to purchase a OEM version if you buy a piece of hardware for your computer also.

But you would have to see Newegg's policy. Worth a browse. Student version of Office for $120.

Also might find used software on ebay.

And your local computer parts store might be able to get you an OEM deal also. So 3 avenues to explore.

If you even have a k-12 student you can get a copy from the academicsuperstore for a good price. Oops, I was thinking of the whole suite, not just word... but at the student pricing you can get the whole suite of office programs for about the same price as word.

I bought ms publisher 97 for about $100, then later bought office 97 professional for about $180 after shipping, and that included publisher!

You can always use openoffice (http://www.openoffice.org/) for free

I write for a living. They are close enough for most stuff, but with the documents we produce, OO doesn't quite cut it. (As much as I wish it did.)

Framemaker is the best tool, but it's not cheap.
