I search Kinguin for second hand MS office licenses.  Most recently I got office pro 2016 for $34.

When I looked at Office 365, I think I decided it was cheaper to use that than to buy every new version.  On the other hand if you're going to hang on to Office 2003 for 10 years then you're better off buying it outright, even if you paid full retail price.

I used Libre Office for awhile too.  It works for most things.  I occasionally had formatting issues importing when somebody else's Word doc, and spreadsheets with macros would sometimes not work right.

    login info.  Did not think anything of it...
    until... all email stopped flowing.
    It totally hijacked my zone file.  MX records all changed.  Put a
    bunch of crap in there.  WOW.
    Password is not changed, I think I have cut out all of the
    offending crap.  Email is flowing again.
