Legally?

If you have kids in school at the moment, I believe that you can get it at educational price.

I think £225 is typical internet price, for the full product, or £149 educational, but I suspect that if you're using it for business, then that might be outside the T&Cs of th eeducational license.

Look at Amazon.co.uk for a starter... then try a bit of Google-ing

If you're in the market for a new PC as well, there are deals that bundle office at a sensible price. Could be a sledgehammer to crack a nut of course!

Do you REALLY need Access??? - lot cheaper to buy without that - you could buy an older version - usually still compatible.

And yes it supports all the popular Microsoft formats!!!

Have given it to a few of our clients who are very happy with it - remember it's FREE!!!
