Microsoft Office 2010 gives you powerful new tools to express your ideas, solve problems, and connect with people.
Windows 7 upgrade  |
Upgraded from Microsoft Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium. Windows 7 is slightly better than Vista. What more can I say? |

Beware of Microsoft Product Keys and "Help-lines"  |
| I recently purchased a new laptop with Microsoft Office 2010 pre-installed. When I tried to register the product using the Product Key (taken directly from the computer's label) the code was not accepted and I received an Invalid Product Key response. I called the computer manufacturer's help-line (Sony) and was told that this was a common problem with Microsoft Office 2010, and they referred me to Microsoft itself. For the next three days I tried to contact a Microsoft "help" tech, both through the internet and by telephone with what I thought would be a simple problem requiring a simple fix. But noooooo . . . Talk about being run around in circles. In the end my option was to either pay a Microsoft contracted help-line (OMNI) to "fix" the problem, or pay Microsoft directly ($39 / $49) to use their help-service in order to fix a problem with THEIR software. WARNING: if you have any problems with Microsoft software, beware. Unless you're willing to pay additional fees to fix problems with THEIR products you're SOL!!! |

Good improvement over Office 2007  |
| I've been using this for about a month. Looks like Microsoft listened to the customers and fixed some of the inconveniences in the 2007 suite. I'm a happy camper so far. |

Does so many things I wished previous versions would do  |
| I've done a lot of word processing - I've written a thesis recently in an older version of Office and I'm regularly using Powerpoint and Excel as a graduate student. These experiences have led me to appreciate the ease of use of this product and its capabilities for organization and efficiency. While it can be clunky at first, especially if you're used to an older version, I find it much easier to get serious formatting and editing changes done in this version. This particular package also includes the major things a student or general user would need. Very pleased with this product. |
