Microsoft has released the latest version of it’s Office application suite today with the availability of Office 365 Home Premium.

“Office 365 Home Premium is a cloud service designed for busy households and people juggling ever-increasing work and family responsibilities. The new offering includes the latest and most complete set of Office applications; works across up to five devices, including Windows tablets, PCs and Macs; and comes with extra SkyDrive storage and Skype calling — all for US$99.99 for an annual subscription, the equivalent of US$8.34 per month.”

I’ve enjoyed the improvements over the previous version, and now that I have a Surface and a Windows 8, the sharing of documents between devices using SkyDrive is essential.

Features:

  • The latest and most complete set of Office applications: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher and Access
  • One license for the entire household to use Office on up to five devices, including Windows tablets, PCs or Macs, and Office on Demand available from any Internet-connected PC**
  • An additional 20 GB of SkyDrive cloud storage, nearly three times the amount available with a free SkyDrive account
  • 60 free Skype world calling minutes per month to call mobile phones, landlines or PCs around the world***
  • Future upgrades, so you always use the latest time-saving technology

You can grab a free trial here.

remember, this is only an introductory offer guaranteed to increase ASAP.

Where is that stated at?

I'm being cute and funny again, you need to catch up Spencer. But on the other hand, I'd hate to reliant on a pay as you go service, where both the programs and the data are not in my control. What would you do if they bumped the price up?

You need to learn some sarcasm tags or emotes, or something.  :D

Does anyone know how to make sure Office 365 (15) is NOT skinned? I've tried all the former things that worked with WindowBlinds and Office but I'm unable to find the resource, the EXE file, that will allow me to ignore skinning for each of the 365 applications. Some blinds are fine but when using a darker blind (e.g. Venom) I can't seem to fine the right file to tell WB to ignore.

 

thanks in advance, ward

I don't use cloud software for my important information. Therefore it would be useless for me to have Office365 AND Office2010 on my machine. I'll just stick with the secure one where I know I'll forever OWN my own data.
