From: Susan Ramlet on 22 Feb 2010 17:32 Hi, snobunny, While it is, indeed, your responsibility to keep your license information, if you have an immediate need and no $ to purchase Office, try OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org). It's a free productivity suite that has some compatibility with Microsoft Office applications. BTW, Apple's awesome, but they would agree that it's your responsibility to keep track of what you own. -- Susan Ramlet **please reply to the newsgroup so others may benefit** "snobunny" <snobunny(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D179419B-5B02-48F6-B05F-1BB98FBA80EC(a)microsoft.com... > Hi Deborah, > I am new to the Microsoft Office board.
