Microsoft Office 2010 is a great bit of software for the home office. It's probably got a lot more than the average person needs for daily use, but if you want all the bells and whistles then you can't go wrong. I use it primarily for my email and basiac documents, but pretty much everything I need is contained in the software. Lots to explore here and if you take the time you'll find that you can do a ton of things with it. If you're not quite as adventurous, then maybe this isn't for you, but if you want it all, you'll be pleased with the software.
