I need a copy of microsoft word does anybody know where i can download it cheap or free if possible ive got the trial off microsoft but it runs out tomorrow and they want over £100 for the pleasure of the full version i dont use it much so cant justify this. ive tried openoffice but prefer word.
Ps ive got a microsoft works cd and code but it doesnt seem as compatible when sending documents via email so no longer use this

you can get the full office suite pretty cheap off ebay if you dont mind using office XP or similar.

Have you tried openoffice. It's free to download.
I use it on my PC.

You just need to make sure you save your documents in the office format, I.e .doc for word documents, and .xls for excel spreadsheets
