I have to be honest and give this a 5 star. The setup is very quick and painless and so far, the ads are very non-intrusive and don't hinder any work whatsoever. Open Office is of course a great alternative, however, many colleges won't accept you using it in class or otherwise since they stick to standards. I uninstalled Office 2007, this now installed so I'm not sure what the issue is there but regardless, it worked.Īll that aside, it may be scaled down, have ads but at least it gives people(especially college students who struggle to get word 2010)a chance to use it without restriction in that regard so I have to say, this is a good thing.

I was first very unhappy thinking MS was just giving this to OEM owners (which in some respect prior was correct)but now, it's completely free.Īfter trying other installs, etc. First off, I had issues installing this stating that the files were not found to install and the error lead to the fact that it needed an OEM preload in order to install this.
