Are you a teacher, student or a parent of a child and want Microsoft Office for £38 ?
You might think that the Microsoft Home and Student version of Microsoft Office is a great deal and the ideal one for your student son or daughter. Not so ! But it seems to be a carefully kept secret. Can you really buy the whole of Microsoft Office legally for £38 ?
If you go into your local computer shop or electrical store, they may not tell you that if you or your child are in Education (teacher, student, pupil etc) then you can buy the whole of Microsoft Office for less than the price of the Home and Student version.
Really ? Yes, it's true, but not a lot of people know that..
Not only do you save on the price of the Home and Student version , but you also get virtually all the Microsoft office programs , which normally retail at £429
Lets do a comparison...
