Off Topic Microsoft Office??

Ah that’s a shame. Why 3 computers? (I’ve not read the rest of the thread yet lol)

 

Could you not just get employed at 2 other schools given the enormous amount of holiday you have and get 1 from each of them?

 

I like the idea of working 3 jobs not for extra money but for the extra potential of free Microsoft Office. It's genius really.

 

Thanks

 

Didn't you say your wife earns twice as much as you? You certainly don't need the money - that really is like me working in 3 schools!

 

Wait for it to drop in price. It happens 2-3 time a year.

 

Anything Microsoft is an over priced piece of junk.

Their Windows is a clunky mess and a pain in the ass, microsoft office costs literally hundreds occasionally and anything hardware they manufacture (Xbox and all associated tech) is utter garbage.

The fact they have such a global monopoly is staggering.

 

Got my lifetime key on eBay - £2.99 - no problems so far

 

****in hate Microsoft with a passion.
Here's an example of their ****ness.
I have dual monitors. I pulled the hdmi cable out of one of them to test my son's pc.
Plugged it back in when finished and Windows 10 refuses to recognise I have two monitors.
****in Microsoft piece of ****. All it has to do is work ffs.

 

Her gross pay is almost two and a half times mine but her take home is about 80 percent more than me. Either way, quids in. I'm amazingly frugal though. Not saying that as a good or bad thing, I just actually enjoy cutting costs etc more than buying things.

 

How’s the job hunting going? Any more licences yet?

 

Exactly, but somehow it doesn't.

Have issues with this every single time Windows updates. Fails to recognise my graphics drivers, ****s with my screen resolution and won't let me change it back, adds garbage programs nae **** on this planet would ever ****in' want.

It's literally the most garbage piece of **** ever, when I had Windows Vista jesus. Broke after ever 2nd update, wouldn't load the PC had to get it fixed 3 times maybe? But now, in 2020, you can't turn windows updates off.

 

I'm OK, the licence I get for free from my school is installed on three computers here without issue. @Darren Peacock's Ponytail sucks to be you mate.

 

Just torrent it and burn it onto a disk or bootable usb.

 

Do they give you a code? Can the school see your files?

 

When i log into my school emails on an off-site computer there's a symbol i can click on the top left of the toolbar which looks like this when i click it:



If I click on the "Office 365" bit at the top it allows me to install Office 365 on the computer I'm on at that time. I'm allowed to do it on I think 4 computers. No idea if the school can see my files, I'm certain no-one looks though - who has got time for that?

 

Ah! We have nothing like that.

Also wouldn't trust anyone having access to certain documents I have.

I'm going to keep an eye out for the Argos deal

 

Let me adopt you - I have 3 spare licenses on my family account.
