what... i would freaking love to. i would buy licencess for all my money and give them to everyone and everything if it was the freaking cheap!!!! im running open office on my laptop and word 2003 on my main PC(found a license when looking on my floor, not even kidding, thats also were i found my sound card btw) so i would LOVE an upgrade, right now there is no way im getting it because screw monthly subscriptions, i aint got the money for that, id rather have a one time purchase 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

Eh I'm not totally interested because if I need document software or presentation software, I just use Google Drive.

I guess maybe if I had a strong need for a dedicated program for something in the office suite I could justify spending on a license for MS Office.

MS Office 2016 is provided through my college, but I'm still sticking with Libreoffice. Even though both options are free for me, I just like knowing that I won't have to worry about paying for something I'm already using in the future.

I suppose the other side of it is that I run Arch Linux exclusively and running a virtual machine just for some word processing cramps my style.
