Any yes - there are educational copies of Office available at a discount

A word for Vista? Cr*p?

(Sorry, cheap shot, I know, but I have nothing else to contribute at this time of night!)

Seconded - I'm using Openoffice, useful package. My laptop came with MS Works, which isn't bad, but I'll tend to always use Openoffice instead.
