Can I update from Office 2002 to 2003 for free?

Ineedhelp

I had a trial for 2003, was told it was supposed to be the complete version
that came standard with my new computer, but it wasn't. I have an old copy of
Office XP pro 2002, and was wondering if there was an easy free way to get my
2003 back. Help is very welcome!

Office 2003 is not a free upgrade from Office XP (2002 apps).
http://microsoft.com/office/howtobuy

If you have a retail (non-OEM) edition of Office XP then you
should be able to install it on the new computer. If it was
an OEM copy then it was licensed to the original machine and
is generally not transferable.

There are two ways to Office 2003:
1) Purchase an Office 2003 distribution either from Microsoft or a
third-party distributor.
2) Download it from a warez site or torrent somewhere, or get a copy
from a relative or neighbor. Both of these options will give you an
UNLICENSED copy. Installing such unlicensed copies is a crime in the
United States (don't know where you are from, so don't know their laws
on software piracy).
