To be perfectly clear, I would pay several thousand to BUY MS Office. Like many others I bought Office 97 and prior versions, mostly out of gratitude to the developers, but after that buying became impossible.MS home office is $229. For some, I guess that is too much to spend for 3-5 years of use.
Once again, it's not worth one cent to me to rent software. They control what they want to offer and that is their prerogative. As for me, it is my prerogative to continue with free Open Office if all they can offer is rentals. Guess I should be grateful to them, because they saved me all that money.
