    Default Microsoft Office University

    Ok so I was looking for an Access trial, but then came across Microsoft Office University
    (http://store.digitalriver.com/store/...ctID.242145400)

    It seems that I'd be able to buy it from just being in College - not University, as I have a .ac.uk email address. However, I was just wondering if anyone has bought it before and if you know how many PCs you can install it on?

    Not online very often

    Depends on the college if you get it free or not to be honest. As a student you can get Office for cheap - In terms of that version I have a feeling it's not a product key activation so when you stopped going to college/Uni then it may no longer work if you need to activate it again.

    Through my University we were able to get Microsoft Office for £50 last year, so it might be cheaper to buy it through your college/Uni than through other websites, pretty sure Microsoft has a link to it somewhere on their website as well.

    It says on that site he linked that is a perpetual license and that the product key is emailed to your .ac email address. Also it says that in addition to the single computer it is licensed for you can install it on an additional portable device which seems to imply you could have it installed on your desktop machine and a laptop as well.

    Ah, I was reading something and it mentioned about it you having to log in to verify instead of the product key method. Fair enough if that is the case then.

    The one I have was 80 quid for 3 installations (I think). Try looking on softwareforstudents, as that's where I ussually get mine!

    But @xxMATTGxx; is right about the activation; you have to go online and verify your school email address to make sure you're eligible. Once it's verified, it then displays the product key. If you're just in college you might need to see if you're eligible for it - they wouldn't accept my sister's email account for a product she bought a few months back, but she's in year 11.

    Year 11 isn't college, Years 12+ is.

    He is talking about the software activation after you enter the product key when installing the software. The activation I think you are referring to is just simply the verification they do prior to giving you a product key.
