If you're strapped for cash there are plenty of alternatives that may work for you, such as LibreOffice or OpenOffice, both provide near identical features to office, and are about 95% compatible with Office. Purchasing licenses for, say, a DELL computer that you never owned, and applying it, even to your own DELL computer, is not in line with licensing and is no different than just pirating office to begin with. I believe what he is referring to (or hopefully) is the "system builder" version of windows, but for office.ĪFIK they no longer make this available, there may have been a time when this was done, but it no longer is. OEM licenses are only legally sold with a brand new computer by a system builder, bundled with the machine. It is illegal to use OEM licenses on existing computers. They are all expensive no matter what way you look at it, but find a computer store that sells parts and they'll be happy to sell you 10 copies of Office OEM. It will comprise of the CD and the case, unlike the retail that has the fancy box, documentation, etc. (OEM, meaning Original Equipment Manufacturer) tends to be 20 - 40 dollars cheaper than the Retail version. The best way I found to buy MS products is OEM, not the retail version.
