Description Office Home & Student 2013 is designed to help you create and organize faster with new, time saving features and a clean, modern look. I have never been a Microsoft hater, as many are. But the love is certainly gone. Welcome to the beginning of the end of an economical Office purchase (with one exception, which I'll get to later).Ready to get your new 2013 Home & Student with 3 licenses?

If you do not have Office 2010, see if you can live with the competition (OpenOffice, Google Drive) before buying this.--------------------------------------------------------------------------About a month ago, I installed Windows 8 and the final version of Office 2013 on a Dell XPS 13. A bit about me: I'm a graduate student and a long-time user of Microsoft Office. I've used Word, Excel, Powerpoint and OneNote almost every day for the past 5 years, but OneNote the most by far. I've used every version of Office since 1997.As other reviewers have pointed out, the biggest changes to Office 2013 from Office 2010 are SkyDrive integration, touch gestures, and a flatter UI to match Windows 8. Since I don't use SkyDrive often, don't...
