My understanding is this can be a pretty complicated issue.
Open source alternatives such as Open Office. Besides being free, the software is compatible with current Microsoft products, and quite good.You may not need all the latest and greatest features, so why pay for them? Check out eBay, not only for bargains, but also for new copies of older versions of Office which are often found at a steep discount.Purchasing just the program (Word, Excel, etc.) you need, rather than the entire package.There are plenty of options besides purchasing an additional copy of Office, especially if you can’t justify the additional cost. Today I must assume that’s wrong, as I can find no documentation to back that Some software publishers have license agreements that state you may install on a certain number of machines as long as only one is in use at any time. Others allow you to make a single copy of the software as a backup.įor Microsoft Office specifically, I was lead to believe some time ago that one could install it on up to three machines for personal use. In practice things get just a little grayer than that, though. On the surface, copying is simple: it’s illegal.
