Nakon zaslužene krike i vike, bacanja trulog voća i povrća, smrdljivih jaja i prijetnji vilama, Microsoft je ipak odustao od vječnog vezanja Office 2013 retail standalone instalacije na samo jedno računalo.
Based on customer feedback we have changed the Office 2013 retail license agreement to allow customers to transfer the software from one computer to another. This means customers can transfer Office 2013 to a different computer if their device fails or they get a new one. Previously, customers could only transfer their Office 2013 software to a new device if their PC failed under warranty.
While the license agreement accompanying Office 2013 software will be updated in a future release, this change is effective immediately and applies to Office Home and Student 2013, Office Home and Business 2013, Office Professional 2013 and the standalone Office 2013 applications. These transferability options are equivalent to those found in the Office 2010 retail license terms.
APP.. Nije prošlo 
, dakle nakon što preplatiš Office 2013 ipak ga smiješ preseliti na novo računalo. Wow....!
