I purchased this package to install on a netbook in lieu of using the Microsoft Works package that came with the computer. The netbook was purchased as a backup/travel option for my primary notebook and I ddn't want to spend the money for the full Office package. The H&S version has plenty of features and options for this purpose and is well worth the price to avoid using Works.
What's great about it: Plenty of features for the cost
What's not so great: Relatively long install and setup time
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is what it is... Microsoft 2007 Office products are definitley easier to use and more streamlined than in the past. I was surprised, however, that this bundle did not include Outlook. Only in Office Pro.
What's great about it: Same great programs
What's not so great: no outlook

Previous student/teacher versions of this software included Outlook. If you want outlook, don't buy this software, becaust it's not here. It's been replaced with a fairly cheesy program called OneNote.
What's great about it: Easy installation
What's not so great: Toolbars harder to navigate - less quality software
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Microsoft sure isn't into green packaging. That hard plastic, slide out contraption was completely unneccessary and impossible to open. No package should be so hard to open that you need directions. Even, Microsoft's directions were not completely helpful.
What's great about it: I can think of nothing great about this product
What's not so great: packaging. I could not open the package without literally breaking it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

If you are thinking about it, get it. I cannot wait for Microsoft Office 2010 to come out. Now, I can have this in the meantime and get Office 2010 at no other cost! Amazing. Thanks, Microsoft, for this amazing deal.
What's great about it: FREE upgrade to 2010 when it comes, Great effects, Professional layout
What's not so great: A little confusing at first..

Excellent product! It enables me to do everything I need to for school. Haven't had to utilize it to its full potential yet but thus far very pleased. It was a bit aggrivating having to place a phone call and activate it rather than via computer but for what ever reason it would not work that route.
What's great about it: It enables me to do my homework and much more
What's not so great: Had to call and activate that way bc it wouldnt work online but thus far thats it
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this for my college bound son's new laptop. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that I could also install it on my own PC, it can be installed on up to 3 home PC's! I love it! I use publisher at work, which this doesn't have, but WORD-which it does have, is very similar! Now I can create professional looking cards, signs, and posters at home! It does have some differences from Word 2003, but not a biggy, just have to get used to it, learn new things, better things!
What's great about it: It can be installed on 3 home computers! Word is almost like publisher, can create professional looking projects!
What's not so great: Just have to get used to different format...no biggy!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I mainly use Word and it has been wonderful. It's easy to do long or short documents, and I can email old documents from my old laptop and save them to this Wordm program and it works great.
What's great about it: Easy to figure out
What's not so great: nothing

It's exactly what it's advertised to be, just wish MS would include more programs in the student version. At least a scaled down version of the "pro" versions to give students a chance to use programs they will need for the "real world".
What's great about it: It provides the platform for most applications
What's not so great: Wish they would include MS Money and Outlook in the office suite

Now I spend more time, trying to figure out where my tools are hidden, than actually developing my project. It's a shame that publisher is not included with this bundle... since I needed it for work.
What's great about it: since word is such a staple... it really helps to have this software in order to cross-platform, and move files around.
What's not so great: the ribbon has everything set up completely differently than the menu bar that I was used to.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I don't have a disk drive so I bought the one I could download from the internet site. The internet site was down for days. I finally gave up (I had a paper due!) so I had to download the trial software and then enter the code in the "trial over, buy it now" spot. Now I'm getting tons of junk mail and pop ups asking me to buy Word and I already have it. Very annoying. No choice though, I needed Word.
What's great about it: it's Word
What's not so great: extremely difficult to download
