However, all features and functionality are always available by using a keyboard, mouse, or other standard or accessible input device. Note that new touch features are optimized for use with Windows 8 Additional System Requirements Some functionality may vary, based on the system configuration. Some features may require additional or advanced hardware or server connectivity.
Note: System requirements are rounded up to the nearest 0.5 GB, to be conservative. For example, if we measure an application’s required hard disk space to be 1.99 GB, we recommend 2.5 GB of disk space. Our hard disk system requirements are intentionally larger than the actual disk space usage of the software. A graphics processor helps increase the performance of certain features, such as drawing tables in Excel 2013 or transitions, animations, and video integration in PowerPoint 2013.
Use of a graphics processor with Office 2013 requires a Microsoft DirectX 10-compliant graphics processor that has 64 MB of video memory. These processors were widely available in 2007. Most computers that are available today include a graphics processor that meets or exceeds this standard.
However, if you or your users do not have a graphics processor, you can still run Office 2013. Compatible with Windows 8.1,Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows Server 2012. Does not run on Windows XP or Vista.
The Cheapest Ways to Get Microsoft Office for Your Mac or PC Today Techinch tech, simplified. The Cheapest Ways to Get Microsoft Office for Your Mac or PC Today Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013 There's two expensive application suites that are almost considered a necessity to have on your computer: Microsoft Office, and Adobe Creative Suite. Many find ways around paying for the latter (alternate apps work, there's the cheaper apps that work for most stuff, and such), but Office is a bit trickier. Especially this year. After releasing Office 2013 for Windows and the new Office 365 subscription version of Office, traditional Office pricing has gone up. Used to, all editions of Office let one user install Office on up to two computers, which worked great if, say, you had a desktop and a laptop.
Then, the Home and Student edition let you install Office on up to 3 computers in the same household, which was a great deal for families. With Office 2013's release, now all editions of both Office 2013 and Office 2011 for Mac are only licensed to be installed on one computer. At least you're still allowed to if you need to, something Office 2013 oddly didn't allow at first. The Cheapest Way to Get Office Today So, if you want to purchase Office today, and not get it as part of a subscription, then here's your options: Office Web Apps I know, I know: it's not real Office, but it's close enough for basic use, and it's free. It's the best option if you really need to go cheap on Office. Check out my full review of the at Web.AppStorm, or go try them out for yourself at. You might be surprised.
Real Office Ok, so you want real Office to install on your computer? Here's the options today:. Office 356 - the subscription version of Office for Mac and PC. Office 2011 for Mac. Office 2013 for PC. Office 2010 for PC Office 365 The first option — and easily the best if you have more than two or three computers — is, Microsoft's new subscription for Office. For $9.99/month or $99.99/year, you can run Office on up to 5 computers (Macs or PCs), get 20Gb extra Skydrive storage (a $10/yr value, though even that's way cheaper than, say, extra Dropbox storage), and 60 minutes of Skype calls per month (worth around $20/yr).
You'll get full Office - Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, as well as Access and Publisher on a PC. If you'd pay for Skype and extra Skydrive storage as well, and have 5 computers in your household, it works out to around $14/computer/year. Students get even cheaper: $79.99 for 4 years of Office 365 for 2 computers. That'd work out to around $10/computer/year. If you're running a business, makes a fairly compelling choice as well if you do need Office, or even if you just need hosted email. You can get hosted Exchange email for your team starting at $4/month, and can get Office for your employees (and yes, they'll each be able to run it on up to 5 devices) for $12.50/month. You can and see what works for you.
I'm actually considering giving the cheaper option a shot for my own domain's email, and have an upcoming AppStorm series about it. Oh, there's one more awesome feature in all versions of Office 365: you can run Office — full Office — from the web if you're away from your computer (though it only works on PCs).
It lets you essentially stream the full-featured app, downloading the features you need as you need them, so you can use full Office anywhere. That's pretty nifty.
So, all of those are decent options if you have a lot of computers to use with Office, and if you want Microsoft's other services anyhow. The only problem is, you don't really own Office, and can't use it forever.
It's a subscription. If you'd buy Office upgrades each time they come out, it likely won't work out more expensive, but you have to consider the best for you. If you want real Office that you own, for good, then there's still options.
Microsoft Office 2013 For Mac For Sale
Office 2011 for Mac Mac users don't have a new version of Office yet, but even still, the existing version of Office got slapped with the same 1 computer per copy of Office restriction. The good thing is, there's still copies of the on Amazon, and it'll still get all of the latest updates.
That'll get you Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for up to 3 Macs in the same house for $120. That's $40/Mac, and if you use it for 4 years without buying an upgrade, that'll cost $10/Mac/year. If you're using Office professionally, you can get a for just under $200, or there's a few copies of the for $299. Now, both of these prices are only for right now; as soon as those copies sell out, then Office 2011 will cost $119 per computer for Home and Student. Also, remember that Office for Mac is due for a refresh perhaps later this year, so if you can, it might make the most sense to hold off on a purchase, or go for so you'll get updates included. Office 2013 for PC If you want Office 2013, even just for one computer, you're likely best to go with.
Your cheapest options, otherwise, are for $139.99, and for $219.99. The former gets you Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote for home use, while the latter adds Publisher and Access and is licensed for business use. Both options only are licensed for one PC, though the good thing is you can use it perpetually. If you only need the basics of Office on one PC, then Office 2013 Home and Student will likely work out cheaper over time.
Otherwise, though, the subscriptions start looking really attractive price-wise. And Office 2013 is nice, with a much more streamlined UI across the whole suite, web app creation in Access, PDF editing in Word, smart data entry in Excel, and more. It's worth checking out just maybe not as a boxed version, as you would have purchased Office before. Office 2010 or older versions But you know what? Office 2010 or 2007 is still a good option if you've got a copy around, and if you're not feeling like you've got to have the latest features, then your best value would be to stick with what you have.

Office 2010 is still quite similar to 2013, and even 2007 is enough up-to-date to keep you from feeling too behind. Or, if you need to buy Office, you can still get for $169, and it'll still let you install it on 3 computers, which works out to just $56/computer. That's a perpetual license, so you can keep using it forever, making it quite a bit cheaper right now than Office 2013 or Office 365 if that's all you need. Plus, it'll run on XP and newer, while Office 2013 and Office 365 will only run on Windows 7 and 8. There's also still copies of the pro versions of Office 2010 around on Amazon, as well as Office 2007, but none of those would really work out cheaper than their 2013 competitors right now.
Though, that's still an option if you need to buy Office for XP or Vista PCs. That's a wrap So, that's a lot to consider, but hopefully it'll help you find the best option to buy Office for your PC or Mac in 2013, or get around having to shell out for it. The Office Web Apps on really are a great option, and older versions of Office still are a great value option — especially if you already own them. But Office 2013 is a compelling release if you're on a PC, and the new Office 365 subscriptions are far more interesting than they look at first glance.
I'm especially interested in their hosted Exchange/Sharepoint/Office options, and that's surprising for this Mac and web app guy that's almost left Office behind. Microsoft may have made some missteps with Windows 8 and Windows Phone, but they've also going on. @reply me on.
