About Microsoft Office 2010 Product Key Cards
A Product Key Card provides another way to purchase Office with a PC. It includes a 25-character Product Key designed to activate Office software on a preloaded PC.

Product Key Card features

• Includes 25-character Product Key only, no disc.
• Designed to activate Office on 1 PC preloaded with Office 2010 suites. For a limited time, customers buying a PC without Office 2010 preloaded, can download the software at www.office.com/productkeycard.
• Licensed for 1 install on single PC only.
• License cannot be transferred to another PC.
• Download backup available at www.office.com/productkeycard.

Recommended for:

• Customers buying a PC who need Office for new PC only; don't need to upgrade other home PCs.
• Customers buying a PC who don't require DVD media and/or are okay downloading software (if Office not preloaded).
• Customers buying a new PC (best experience if customer simply uses the Product Key to activate a PC already preloaded with Office 2010 suites)

For customers who require Microsoft Office Home and Student 2010 with a license for three machines in the same household, Office may be purchased in a traditional disc version.

2.0 out of 5 stars Buy the disc version instead - better value + disc for recovery, November 14, 2010

Tech Reader - See all my reviews

This review is from: Microsoft Office Home & Student 2010 Product Key Card

The Disc version costs $120 currently, and product key version $106.

The Disc version can be installed on three PC's instead of just one for the product key version.

The Disc version provides for easier emergency recovery/reinstall (no downloads) compared to the product key version.

**On A Clean PC** = This key works flawlessly when used to activate Office Home/Student that has been downloaded from the website ([...]) provided in the editorial review. It is written that the website can be accessed for a limitied time and I have no idea how long that is. It still exists as of this writing. To reiterate, using the online download version together with the product key offered here results in a trouble free install - On a Clean PC, (no prior install of Office). An install disk can be purchased from MS for about $15 after tax (free s/h), at the time you do the download, if you want one. I did not pre-install Office in leu of receiving the product key...I waited until it came in the mail (two days Amazon Prime), and activated it immediately after download.

(Installed on old (2005 or 2006 I think) Sony laptop VGN-SZ270P/C with 2gb ram running Vista from a clean install)

Well I bought this for my daughter in college, and nowhere in the ad did it say is was for computers that were preloaded with office 2010.
I had downloaded a trial of office 2010 from micorosft and they said all I needed was a key, so I purchased this key on Amazon and it really looked like the right key.
Did not realize until product was received and read the small print on the box.
Well in a nutshell the key would not work on that software.
After downloading new software which took about 5 hours from my daughters college dorm I was able to use this key.
Good luck to anyone that buys Microsoft Products.
