Do you mean MSDNAA? AFAIK, that only gives you access to OSs and development tools.

However M$ has a promotion for uni students to get Office Ultimate (not the academic version) for a *significantly* reduced price (25$ for the yr, 75$ for life - in AU). They have similar discounts for other countries.

http://www.itsnotcheating.com.au (for AU - has links to other countries too)

*Hurry - promotion ends soon

Office is one of the few M$ products I really like. I would never pay full price for it though, given what I'd be using it for.

That said, where I'm not forced to use a particular Word template, I usually use Google docs (or sometimes TeX).
