Student Savings

Archive: 6 posts


I came across a great deal the other day while shopping for software for my laptop (since my HD crashed and I lost all my programs, and didn't have the disks to reinstall them .. yes, someone had given the program keys to me lol).

I needed the microsfot office suite (word, excel, powerpoint, ect) so I went looking for a discount version, and boy did I find it!

Now, before everyone gets too excited .. the discount only applies if you are a current student, sorry.

For $60 you get:


Word 2007
Groove 2007
Excel 2007
Publisher 2007
PowerPoint 2007
Access 2007
Outlook 2007
InfoPath 2007
OneNote 2007
Accounting
Express 2008

Also, if you are in the market for Photoshop CS4, and you are a student, you can now order it for only $199.

Why spend $60 when you can get OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/) for FREE?

What do you mean now? =P Adobe (and before that Macromedia) always offered all there software at a student rate.

Maybe because some don't know how much they cost, and why would I want openoffice .. it doesn't have the same features as Microsoft Office. Like powerpoint for example.

Jeeze, you try to be nice ... sorry.

It has Impress (http://why.openoffice.org/images/impress-big.png), which creates presentations, like powerpoint.

lol, sorry I didn't mean to be rude, it's just why spend money when you can get stuff that's just as good for free?

I guess because I have to have programs that create the same things I have to work on at school. 2 different programs have different fonts, templates, and add ons.

Just doesn't work for me.
