hi

im about to get a acer x3812 desktop pc for general home use ,pc's ive got in the past have come with the bundled software like microsoft works, but ive always found it a bit rubbish.

whats the best program for office work that includes stuff like ms word?

thanks

*edit* forgot to mention it will need to be windows 7 64bit compaitable? *

i like the look of microsoft home and student 2007 , that includes word, excel, powerpoint and onenote ,
would this work on windows 7 64bit?

im sure this has been asked loads but what email client should i use in windows 7?

as im with virgin i have pop3 accounts so i need a simple program , is outlook 2007 anygood or should i just use windows live mail , the only thing that puts me off that is the fact i need a sign-in ID?

cheers

im going to stick with windows live mail and see how that goes, i have one final question if i download ms office 2010 beta will i get an option at a later date to update to the full version when its released?

thanks

Well you can buy it and install it? It will probably be a reinstall of the software though.

proberly best to just uninstall then and purchase a boxed version from somewhere cheaper?
