I, um, already have it and all, but um, I'm just curious... does anybody know how to get a fake activation number for M$ Office XP Professional? I'm just uh, curious to see if it's possible. Yeah, that's it.

btw, I checked with gannon before starting this, but if Ben or Black Six wants to delete it, go ahead. I think there's a difference between Bungie and M$, though.

I would suggest Open Office :P
I must say that I've lost plenty of key codes for software I own so I've had to delve into the depths of google many a time.

I have it for Linux, but I'm not sure about how compatible it is with M$ office, especially PowerPoint, especially when going from Linux To Windows or Mac OSX.

You can save in the following formats:
.sxi .sti .ppt .pps .pot .sxd .sda .sdd and .vor
Hope this helps. This is on the linux version that came with fedora core 3, other versions might be a bit different.

You can in SuSE 9.1 as well, but I don't think you'd get it perfect from program to program, I'd think that there would be some bugs with pictures and videos and stuff like that.

I wasn't entirely sure, but I checked it out first. If you wanna delete it, that's fine with me. If it was about pirating Halo 2 or GTA: SA, which cost only $50 for a quality product, that's one thing. I figured that this is a bit different, with a company that is worth billions because they overcharge on their products and everything (honestly, $200 for Microsoft word alone)
