CNET Touts 'Massive' Microsoft Office Deal: 91% Discount on a Lifetime License

Meanwhile, over in the Microsoft ecosystem, CNET reports:You can ditch the subscription (with recurring charges) and snag a lifetime license of access to Microsoft's Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, OneNote, Publisher and Access for just $30... That's back at the lowest price we've ever seen, and a whopping 91% off the usual price of $349. However, this deal expires in just a few days, so be sure to get your order in soon.The offer, from StackSocial, applies to both the Windows and Mac version of the software.
