Student Copy of Office

What is the difference between the full version of Office
2003 and the Student Version of Office 2003? All I can
see is the big price difference. Does the student version
have everything the full version has?

Office 2003 for Students and Teachers contains the same set of applications
as Office 2003 Standard. The individual applications are identical. The two
differ in the EULA.

Check he

for what is contained in each Office 2003 edition.

I went to the web site you referenced and if I understand
it right there is no difference and you can even load it
on multiple machines. It appears to have all the same
functions as the full retail one. Am i right? Guess I
should have been buying the student versions all along.

Functionally, they are the same (as far as I know). But read the
License agreements carefully. There are differences. And I believe
there are limits to the number of "multiple" machines. Also, my
understanding is that one difference is that it is not upgradeable and
will not therefore be a "qualifying" product to get the next version.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Yes. Besides price, the most important difference is that
you won't be able to upgrade the student version to a later
version of Office when it comes out. You will be able to
take advantage of all of the updates that are provided for
Office 2003 of course.

Sally,
As well, if you read the eula, you cannot use STE for commercial purposes...
