Can anyone tell me the best place to buy MS Word? - Kiki


Posted: Aug 21, 2014

I see a "download" version on Amazon for I think 70 bux. But is this a good idea?

I bought the pro office suite from Ebay for about $40. - and my daughter also

no problems.

about Amazon, EBay - just read customer reviews - on sellers. I bought many

things including a refurbished computer through Amazon. Seller needs to have some type of return policy, speedy delivery, open contact in case of problems, and favorable reviews on all of this. Use PayPal for card security and further money-back protection.

If what you are looking at is MS Word ONLY for 70-$$, I would keep looking. Like the other poster said - she got the whole suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, etc.) for $40.00.

Downloads always make me cringe. I'd get the disc (delivery is fast), but that's me.

Thanks - that was helpful!!! n/m - Kiki

Hey everyone, I know what you are going through.  I worked for MQ for a very long time . I was tired of not making a paycheck.  Try Etransplus.  I work for them now and they are the most wonderful people.  It is straight typing, no voice recognition AT ALL!!  You can make up to 9-1/2 cents a line and they are not picky about how long you work.  The benefits are not as good but they do have some.  Try them out.  It was the best move I had ever made. ...

This Place Sucks.
Aug 07, 2013

The global MTSOs have ruined everything good about becoming an MT. 1.  Flexible hours (our time, not theirs)- gone 2.  Good pay/livable wage - gone 3.  Unlimited income (lots of work, anytime) - gone 4.  Self esteem - gone Remember the good ol' days?   These metrics and the micro managing are for the birds. Give me a break.   ...

Would You Consider This A Good Place To Work

I laughed – until I realized it may not be a typo or Freudian slip, but what they actually think we are worth.  American MTSO, actual job ad.  Before you all go crazy -- I know!  They were probably filling out a form field that asked for salary and only let them enter numbers – I am sure they mean 5 to 8 cents per line, and the field defaults to per year.  I just needed a good laugh and thought some of you may too.  Title: Medical Transcriptionist WantedDa ...

Where To Place An Addendum In A Letter
Aug 02, 2012

It's been so long since I've come across this that I don't remember how to do it.  I just typed a letter with a cc, and now she added on an addendum.  Where in the letter does it go? After the cc? Before the signature? Between the signature and cc? Also, she said the date of the addendum.  Where does that go? I recall writing "ADDENDUM" in all caps before the addendum, but how would I write "Addendum of August 1, 2012"? TIA! ...
