Microsoft office starter 2010 is a simplified, reduced functionality version of Ms Word Starter 2010 and Ms Excel Starter 2010 with advertising. It does not contain Power Point, Access or any other MS office applications. It’s preloaded and ready to be used on any windows platform higher than windows XP.

There is a special feature that enables you to create a device that can run office Starter on another PC. The other major difference is Ms Office Starter interface includes display advertising and is not trail software. User can continue using it as long as he/she satisfied with it. If User wants more features, he/she can upgrade to office 2010 by clicking Purchase on the Home tab on the ribbon.
