What are the differences between: MS office 2007 standard and Home & student?
From a purely software standpoint, here is the difference. Both come with Word, Excel, and Powerpoint. Standard has Outlook, but Home does not. Home and Student has OneNote, while Standard does not. My assumption is that they also kept the software license for the Home and Student version to allow 3 separate installs per license for 3 of the customer’s computer, while Standard only allows 1 install per license. But again, that is an assumption; based off Office 2003. Edit: As an add-on to Dave below, DO NOT USE THE STUDENT EDITION IN A BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT. If you are caught using a home license inside the workplace, it will cost you.
