MS Office

Hi, Can anyone recommend somewhere to get a cheap copy of MS Office? Preferably 2010 or 2013. I would need Excel, Word, Powerpoint and Outlook (though I'm not sure if I'd get away without outlook) Thanks :)

Have you considered libre office? Very similar functionally, and compatible with Ms office

True, I should have mentioned that. For email, Thunderbird is excellent. Also free.
