Any Ideas on THIS One?!?

[Guest]

Hello,

I had my HP lap-top computer stolen and have since
replaced it with a Sony lap-top (Model PCG-Z1VA). Both
computers had/have Windows XP.

My insurance company told me rather than buying Microsoft
Office, I am to download it from the Internet & then
submit them the bill.

I went into Microsoft's "Download" section of their
website, but all I see are updates.

Can I download the actual program onto my new computer?
And does anyone know the approximate cost? It seems like
this would NOT be the cheaper option...but then again, I
will be reimbursed (I hope).

Thanks!

HH

It is not legally available for download.

Microsoft does not offer MS Office as a download to retail customers.
The insurance company may be thinking of a different brand. Retail pricing is available from your local software dealer or a number
of online stores as well. (Note, 'OEM' copies you may see advertised are locked to one computer after installation, while retail
copies are transferable and can be used by the same user on a portable and a desktop computer).

If you had a retail edition of office what happened to the disks?
