I lost my Office XP key :(

Post by BlackRider »

Is there a legit way of reinstalling Office (i.e. can I get a new key?) or do I have to buy another copy? (Only $8 from the university for a student copy, but I'm trying not to spend any more money and the university is 20 mins away on a good day.) Otherwise I'll just have to use the office thing that came with Fedora.

OpenOffice is a pretty good M$ substitue. You can still write and save files as .doc,.xls.pps, etc, and use them on other Windows machines. I don't know of any legal ways to get a new key without buying a new copy of the software. And DAMN I wish I could get a student copy for $8.. My price is still over $100.
