    Not sure if it was discussed already, i can't find it anyway. If it was, i would be grateful for a link.

    Anyway - is anyone using or heard of "Office Live"? It's basically office package in one file - you don't need to install it, can even run from memory stick, you get word, excell, access, outlook and picture viewer, and you also have a choice between 2007 and 2003 version.
    I've been using it for couple of months now without any problem, i have few questions though.

    Is there anyone who knows anything about this application?

    "Office Life" is one of Microsoft's products but operates over the web, not from a USB key.

    I have a feeling you have a portable version of Openoffice which i use myself very successfully for the majority of documents.

    Microsoft's product is at http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/officelive/default.aspx

    The copy of Openoffice is part of http://portableapps.com/

    No, it's not that. I know office live web application, i also know the openoffice and it's neither of them. it's actual MS Office, with proper word, excel, and access for 03 and 07, and Outlook 07. I've been using MS Office for years, and i think i know it quite well, and so far can't see any difference between regular Word and the one i have on my USB stick - same goes for excel and access. Well there is some actually - it doesnt have help or clip-art files, but that;s about it.
