upgrade from mac office to pc?

[Charles T. Shay]

Can you upgrade from Office 2004 for Mac to Office 2007 for PC for the
lower upgrade price? Or do I have to basically start over and buy
Office again for $250 - $300 or whatever it is, if I switch from Mac
and buy a new PC?

(I have Office '04 on my iMac. I'm weighing buying either a new iMac
or a new Dell. The cost of buying Office again makes the inferior-but-
cheaper Dell almost as expensive as a new Mac, alas.)

MS doesn't offer a cross-platform license/upgrade, so you'll have to
purchase a new version.

Thanks. That's what I assumed, but I would have felt foolish if I
hadn't asked and was wrong.

Appreciate it.
