And they have it on amazon less expensively than ordering it from the link on my computer which had a trial preinstalled.
I am confused about licensing and upgrading though, it's my understanding that if I get the amazon version in a box, I can install it on 3 computers, but if I order it off the web from micosoft, I can only use it on that computer.
I have also read a review from someone that had trouble putting it on a computer with previous versions on it. My plan is to uninstall it first, then reinstall it from the disks. I have a product key for the version that is on it now and I figured uninstalling it first would prevent any product key conflicts, if there is such a thing.
I'm planning on getting the student version from amazon for 116 bucks, I want to make sure I won't have any problems though before i do this.
Definitely uninstall first.
You can get office 2010 now, so don't buy 2007.
The student version may be different, but generally you can only install the program on one computer. If needed, you can re-install it on the same system up to 3 times, which some people think lets them use it install it on three systems...
