Torrent it. Or there's this shit called open office. It's like word and powerpoint and it might have an excel thing in there. But it's free.

Yeah, I find open office works better for me.
-takes less time to load
-usually makes updates, which are then copied by Microsoft. So you have newer stuff sooner.
-nicer features.
also when using openoffice, for word make sure you change the default saving thing into .doc (97) or (01) so that all computers can read it. It gives some warning but that is only to try and make you use only openoffice, ignore that.
