    Professional plus for 85 isnt too bad of a deal. It does not come with OneNote though, which IMO is a deal breaker.

    I'm addicted to OneNote myself. It is a better notetaker than Word.

    I would suggest trying out openoffice.org first before purchasing M$ office.

    I personally would get the Home and Student edition. Or befriend a Microsoft Employee and get a copy of Office Ultimate.

    I have just started using OneNote myself. It is pretty great once you get used to how it operates. Still learning myself.
