I need to install outlook on two computers.

.........but looking on the net, it seems all versions specify "one pc". Both computers are my own, so its one user. Does that mean i can only install it one one. (How annoying)

Vista, Office 2007 student version.

Any other options.
All i can see is buy Office 2010 business which is one user, 2 pc's, but at £180 its a lot to pay.

Buying office buys you 1 license for 1 pc.

You could try open office which is similar and freeware

Got kids? Get the 'educational discount' version of office. I got 2010 Ultimate (or whatever it's called) for about £40 as I have a son at primary school. 'Softwareforstudents' rings a bell but can't check at the moment as I'm away from home and having to lower myself to typing this on a Macbook Pro ....

Can't you install Thunderbird on one and use that?

FWIW (as Paul's sorted already) but...

If you buy the full retail version of Office (AKA FPP (Full Packaged Product) or "Traditional Disk") then you can install Office on your desktop and laptop PC:

Quote:

If you purchase a Traditional Disc retail license of Office Home and Business 2010 or Office Professional 2010, the retail license terms allow you to install, activate, and use Office Home and Business 2010 or Office Professional 2010 on your primary PC and your portable device such as your laptop. This license is for your use exclusively.
