Office 2010 Free Product Key
Microsoft has revealed the four editions of Office 2010 that it will be selling at retail, along with their prices. It's also trying something new by offering what it calls Product Key Cards. While you can still buy them at retail, they don't actually contain the software; rather, they contain keys to unlock installations of Office 2010 that are pre-loaded on some new computers.
The keys are cheaper than the full retail boxes, but there aren't many people who will be thrilled with any plan that involves pre-loading software that they can't use without spending more money. The other notable thing about 2010 is the inclusion of Office Web Apps, a cloud version of Office.
Here's a list of the four retail editions of Office 2010, which applications they will include, and how much they will cost.
Office Professional Academic
Office Professional 2010 Product Key Card Download
Priced at $99, this edition includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, Access and Office Web Apps. It's basically a cheaper version of the business-aimed Professional edition, but it's reserved for 'qualified students and educators.' It will be sold through campus bookstores and retailers.
Office Home and Student
This one will set you back $149 for the boxed version and $119 for the Product Key Card. It includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Office Web Apps. It will be the most basic retail edition, separated from its peers primarily by its lack of the Outlook e-mail application. It will also be available in a Family Pack that will include licenses for three computers in your home, but Microsoft hasn't officially announced the pack's price.
Office Home and Business
The price: $279 for the box, $199 for the Product Key Card. For that, you'll get Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook and Office Web Apps. Yep, compare it to Office Home and Student and you'll find that Outlook alone will cost you either $130 or $80 depending on whether you buy the disc or the key.
Office Professional
At $499 boxed or $349 for a key, Office Professional will give you Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, Access and Office Web Apps — the same as the much-cheaper Office Professional Academic version. This is the full suite for small businesses; apps like Access aren't necessary for most home users.

Other SKUs
Microsoft hasn't announced pricing for its non-retail editions, which include the two enterprise SKUs for big businesses. Office Professional Plus will add SharePoint Workspace to the mix. Office Standard will also be an enterprise option, and it will include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook and Publisher. Finally, there will be Office Starter edition. It will cost nothing, but it will be supported by in-app ads. Limited versions of Word and Excel are all you'll get out with that one.
