my MS Office 2007 beta2 exspired today, and no one seems to have posted a working copy on Bit torrent yet (give it a few weeks), with the cost of office sitting at between £92.79 (Dabs) for Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 and £499.99 (Dabs) for Microsoft Office Professional 2007 (see here for details of what they mean and here for prices in the UK), now because of how I use Office I would be after a copy of the £499.99 copy, I am also guessing that this is the cost for a licence only for a single computer, and with Microsoft Windows Vista Unlimited costing a cheap £350.99 (PC World)
that brings the cost of upgrading one of my computers up to a very affordable (?) £850.98.
I wonder if it would cost me £850.98 to learn Linux properly? i get 89 hours to learn it (at £6.50 a hour) which is just over two weeks.
