Office Home & Student vs. Office Professional

C

cflion

Are the individual programs within Office Home & Student (Word, Excel, Power
Point) different in any way from the same programs contained in Office
Professional? Specifically, if I generate a huge power point presentation on
the professional version of power point, will the Home & Student version be
limited in any way?

Thanks

The programs are identical. The PowerPoint presentation can be opened
with no limitations in any edition of Office.

Thanks. It's not commercial use I'm after, just want to be able to work on
"work" files at home.

Working on "work" files at home is commercial use ;-)

Oh, so they won't know and have no way to enforce it. Ethics and
Microsoft are an oxymoron. Interesting how Microsoft expects their
paying customers to be ethical while they are far from it.

JoAnn: Alias is a well-known troll. You should see his antics in the Vista
newsgroups. You need to <plonk> him like so many others have.

I run Office 2003 Professional, no need to worry about where I use it
and have never even seen, much less used, Home and Student or any of its
variants. I just think it ironic that an unethical company like MS gets
its knickers in a twist if their customers do something unethical like
not use paid for MS software the way MS dictates they should. I said
nothing about what I would or would not do. I also said nothing about
what one should or should not do, so your assumption that I would be
unethical is false.

I can do without antics. And it's rare that I actually plonk anyone. I just
have a real problem who figure that ethics are something to be bypassed,
ignored, negotiated, etc.

Because a great big notice appears in the Title Bar of every HSE program "Not for Commercial Use"

It should also play tinny music (preferably some Musak version of a heavy
metal song) and have sparkly letters that scroll. ARGH!!!
