Last night I put up a post that I had found Office 365 Home Premium on Staples website. I stumbled across it looking for prices on the Mac edition of Microsoft Office.
As you can see from the photo above, Office 365 Home Premium for Windows/Mac is now up, live, and ready for purchase.
Unlike other retail box and download versions of Microsoft Office, Office 365 is a subscription service. That means you will be able to use the latest version of the Office software on up to 5 Macs or Windows PCs, that’s the cool part, but you have to pay an annual subscription maintenance fee of $100 annually. That’s the not-so-cool-but-kinda-worth-it part.
I need to install Office, specifically PowerPoint, my kids Compaq laptop that they use for school. I also need to install Office on my Windows 8 Pro box, so I’m excited about this new version of Office. I get to install/upgrade Office on two PCs, with Outlook, for less than the price of one Office 2010 Home and Business license that I was looking at a few days ago.
Sound good? What do you think?
