Even if you buy it from a brick-and-mortar kind of place, you'll only really see a written product key when you tear open the packaging. Though Office 2013 and Office 365 will both be available to purchase in stores, you won't actually find an installation CD in the box. But we're still wondering: is it worth shelling out a hundred bones a year for a subscription? Either way, though, Office 2013 now has an app store, and you can poke around even if you're not a subscriber.Īs it is, we've already given you an in-depth walk-through of all the major new features in Office, but we haven't yet gotten to experience it as a subscription, with all our settings following us from one PC to another. Naturally, too, subscribing to the service means you always get the latest software - a particularly important point for Apple fans still waiting on a new version of Office for Mac. To sweeten the deal, Microsoft is giving Office 365 subscribers 60 Skype minutes per month and 20GB of extra SkyDrive storage. Though you can still buy the software outright, Microsoft has gone out of its way to make subscribing seem like the more attractive option: buying a one-year subscription costs $100 a year and nets you five installs, while the purchase cost is $139 for a single user.

Today, though, it's launching in a more formal way: the final version of Office 2013 is now on sale, as is Office 365 Home Premium, which lets you purchase a subscription to Office 2013 and then install it on up to five computers. It feels like we've been talking about Office 2013 for a while now - we first previewed the software back in July, and it's been available as a free beta download ever since.
