You should note that Office 365 does give you some benefits beyond just use of the Office suite such as 20 GB of Skydrive space, 60 Skype minutes, and you get access to ALL Office apps, which stand alone version may only give you the basics such as Word, Excel, and Powerpoint (depends on the version you get).

Office 365 becomes a good deal when you need to run Office on multiple computers and want to keep using the latest and greatest versions of Office. Generally, if you only need to run it on one computer and don't have a need/want to be using the latests and greatest, then I would avoid Office 365. using it to make money) or home use (not using it to make money)? do you need Access or Publisher or just Word, Excel, and Powerpoint)?

And in spite of what Microsoft said wouldn't work, I have successfully installed several OLD MS programs, dating back to Word and Excel from Microsoft Office. What specific features do you want/need out of Office?

i changed the HDD and install a Windows 2000 on it, but there's no Office on it.

Microsoft officially lists it as not being compatible.

It might run well it enough, but you might encounter some issues. So, it likely will not hurt to try installing it and seeing how it runs.

In either case, firewall the crap out of that thing, because the most recent security patches for 2000 are hard to find, and the ones that I found wouldn't install anyway.If I recall correctly, I have seen people report that they could install and run Office 2003 in Windows 8.

Take care, though, because some methods of upgrading to Windows 10 will relegate all of your programs and services to Windows.old, and they won't run any more. Not really practical, especially if you want to use the Windows 10 installation you already have, but if you were doing this from scratch, you could install XP/Vista/Win7, all of which should allow you to install 2000, and then upgrade. Most (if not all) editions of Windows 10 now support Hyper-V natively if not, there is always VMWare Workstation (not free) and Oracle VirtualBox (free). This really is the simplest and most obvious solution. I have tried in the past and even with compatibility override options I came across the same failures every time.

I know of no hacks to get SQL Server 2000 to install on an existing Windows 10 installation.
