windows office: does anyone know where i can get windows office for windows 7 for free. i really need it for college and i cant seem to find it anywhere|||You can download a free trial, but you have to purchase the full version. If you want a free office suite that's compatible with MS Office then you have several options. These include Libre Office, Open Office and Google Docs. You can also see if your school offers MS Office to students with a discount.|||Microsoft didn't get to be #1 by giving away thier software...it's very well protected. My suggestion would be to ask some of your friends at school. If they purchased a copy, they are allowed to install it on multiple computers. Perhaps you can find someone willing to lend you an installation disc.
