He had me until he started shitting on MS Office. I would disagree, I think O365 kind of crushes it value-wise. And yeah, they added the ribbon in 2007. The UI hardly changes year to year, and if you know Excel 2013 you will pick up Excel O365 pretty quickly, and you will actually be pretty psyched about some of the new features.
Subscriptions for MS Office is nothing but a money grab. It is not useful to me. Maybe it’s useful for enterprises. But I use word and excel a couple times per YEAR. I don’t fit the subscription model, but there’s no option to buy once and upgrade again in, say, 3 years.
So I’ve mostly moved to Libreoffice and Google Docs.
I don't know, for me it's a onedrive subscription with extras -especially since I'm sharing the cost with a friend of mine.
I'm peeved because the friend I share the costs with is using libre office so I may have to pay for the subscription myself. I would, $99/year is worth it to me even without word etc.
Assuming the worst case of needing 3 months a year that would be 20.97 a year. Buying the home edition used to be $150. Office 365 will be cheaper until after 7 years and by then a new version of office would have been released.
