| Yes, Wine is truly a miracle. Once full support for Office is achieved, we should expect huge uptick in Linux adoption. |

| ▲ | ThrowawayB7 6 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Yes, Microsoft does still sell MS Office 2024 as a one time purchase: - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/p/office-home-... - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/p/office-home-... | | |
| ▲ | tom_alexander 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | Outlook is a business exclusive these days?! Outlook used to be included in the most basic version of office back when I still used microsoft office. | | |
| ▲ | dhosek 5 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | I’ve only ever used Outlook when forced to by an employer and I find it a dreadful application to use. I would guess that most people prefer something else. I would imagine that most people tend to stick with the default email app on their computer (no idea what that is on Windows as I’ve managed to avoid having to use Windows for 7 years now). | | |
| ▲ | 1bpp 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | The default mail app on Windows is now called Outlook for Windows, no relation to the Outlook in Office (sorry, Microsoft 365 Copilot), and it's a significantly worse barely functional webview. It also replaced the entire Calendar app, which was decent. |

| ▲ | pkaye 6 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Yes the do have an one time purchase option. You get 5 years of updates but no new features. I have it on my home computers. But new features are not a big deal since the differences are not big anymore (just like mobile phones.) |

| I wouldn't put it past Microsoft to suddenly add "features" that break said support. |
