Expression Web vs. SharePoint Designer: Both are Microsoft products and appear to do about the same things?

They are essentially the same products, it really depends on whether your company is using SharePoint server as the base of its web applications. See the attached link for Microsoft's explanation of why they released two separate products which essentially are the same. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/frontpage/FX100743231033.aspx

The included "Office Home & Student 2013" is a FULL version. It is NOT a Trial version as someone else claimed. The confusion is that this same laptop is being sold elsewhere with a Trial version of "Office 365", which is a web-based solution of the full line of MS Office products. The Office Home & Student 2013 application being offered here is a FULL version, meaning it's yours forever... it is NOT a Trial Version. However, it is limited to only include Excel, Word, OneNote and PowerPoint. It does NOT include Publisher, Access, SharePoint or Outlook.

I have Elements 5 and Paintshop Pro 8 (and 7). All are very good, but the emphasis is different. I use Elements for processing my DSLR photos using the included Adobe Camera Raw. It is reasonably easy to use and the quality of the results is excellent. I use the PTlens plugin to correct for lens defects and Elements works well with this. I very occasionally like to use a feature that Adobe has left out in order to avoid competing with full Photoshop. Examples include Curves adjustment layers and fully automated batch editing. In this case I switch to Paintshop Pro, which invariably does have the missing feature. If you don't know why you would need these features, you probably don't! I don't use the built in Organiser, because I started using Picassa (free from Google) for this purpose and I see no reason to change. For design work, such as web design, I would personally choose to use Paintshop Pro, because its feature set is more complete, (Paintshop Pro 8 is roughly equivalent to Photoshop version 6), and because those advanced features are more easily accessible. Other people that I know would choose to use full Photoshop instead, and I can understand their point of view. Photoshop Elements needs quite a powerfull (i.e. new) computer, if it is not to seem slow. I understand that this is also true for the latest Paint Shop Pro. Finally, you can download both of these products for a free month's trial, so why not try then out and make your mind up after that?

If you are speaking of the bundle software versus just the scanner the answer is "YES!". The software alone has a value equal to or exceed the cost of the scanner alone. Adobe so that you can create and edit PDF's. The disk had both the old Rack2Filer and the new Rack2Filer Smart software which is the way to store documents (and the source file as well which can be edited from the binders". Cardminder, though not perfect with many of the new creative business cards, is also useful software. If you are in an organization using SharePoint you can save directly to your SharePoint site with the added software. In my opinion the scanner without the software is just a way to create a PDF almost like having and auto without any roads. We had used the earlier S1500 the ix500 is a great improvement.

It uses Google Docs which is really similar to a Microsoft Word. It does fairly decent word processing.

I didn't find any difference. I am using it and it is a little different from my friends full version, but nothing that I can decipher that makes a major difference in how to use the tools or publish. I hope that helps. I am using my version in a non profit and it works for how we utilize the program.

There is a difference between a code for the individual site vs. a programming code.(MC). Try your code to see if it works, if not, you will need to get the programming code.

No, those are Microsoft programs. A great freebie alternative is available called "Apache". Apache is an open source program which includes virtually all the elements contained in MS Office. Updates and upgrades are provided periodically. I personally prefer it (Apache)

No, so I purchased the add on 3 million symbol pack and was very disappointed. The absolute best is Visio 5 technical. See if you can find an old copy. It will only run on XP or earlier OS's. Do not use the new Visio as it sucks ever since Microsoft bought them out. Visio is a joy to use. I use it to do electrical layouts for marine applications.

I think you can only get it included with WP X7. I called Corel, asking about the add-on and they sent me to a non-existent page. Methinks the ebook publisher is no longer available because it is included in SP7

Sorry, I don't know. This was a replacement of my mom's PC and she only uses MS Office and surfs the web.

Yes! The first purchase of this item will force you to get a Microsoft account (you can use an existing @outlook.com, @live.com, or @live.com, and some will be able to employ @msn.com, etc) or you will have to create one if you want a separate account. You will then be able to select a domain, that service will use for referencing itself, as well as for use with those who do no have a custom domain. It will be in the following syntax: user@selectedsubnet.onmicrosoft.com and SharePoint will run a public website from https://selectedsubnet-public.sharepoint.com. Once the account you will use to administer the service is created, that user, in this case the adminstrator, may install the software on up to 5 different PC/Mac's any combination thereof. BUT they must all be under the username you selected for the administrator. If you want different email addresses, you must purchase additional licenses. BE VERY CAREFUL! Office 365, is not for people who are tech savvy, they must be IT professionals to fully administer this. If that isn't you, then buy the Office 2013 Standalone Suites, which can allow for multiple license situations under different users (don't the mistake of patting yourself on the back on this one, you'll regret it). If you want more than my word for it, go right to Microsoft here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/business/compare-all-office-365-for-business-plans-FX104051403.aspx Take note that the first row of items is defined as "Subscription to Office for up to 5 PCs/Macs and 5 Windows tablets/iPads PER USER. Office for iPad includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint." Can't be much clearer than that, but the answer is yes, they need to all be under the same user. When you install on multiple machines, you will enter whatever user will be utilizing that machine and it will be authenticated against the setup initially performed.

I've posted photos from the program to my Facebook page, but it's easier for me to post from the "pictures" files in Windows. As far as "design" goes, I guess I don't use that/those feature(s). I bought the program to play with effects and simple cropping and editing, particularly with RAW/NEF images. I like Paintshop Pro for its ease of use. As an older person, I like to keep it simple and Paintshop Pro does that for me. I also have Photoshop CS3, which I use almost as much, due to being used to using the program.

You're correct. After a lot of use.... i still like my unit, it works strong and everything, but the interface.... sucks. Along with that, after a year, im still trying to get webaccess to work fully. I would recommend keeping an open eye and getting this one solely because its on a good deal

Wordpad and notepad are about it. They provide basic functionality but definitely nothing fancy. I use Apache Open Office (free)!
