Best Tablet To Run Microsoft Office

[SSD] I love this tablet. It's amazing. Best tablet I've ever owned.

[Inkjet Printers] Best price office printer inks.

[Perpetual] SoftMaker Office seems to be a straightforward non-subscription and cheaper replacement to Microsoft Office. Needed a decent program suite to edit and save all my Microsoft Docs (Word and Excel). I know there are free open source alternatives, but I was more comfortable working in SoftMaker vs them. It is working well so far and is very familiar to use coming from Microsoft Office. SoftMaker Office doesn’t have has robust review tools built in as Microsoft Office does. However, it didn’t seem like the extra grammar review alone was worth the additional money for the full non-subscription desktop Microsoft Office purchase to me.

[1x USB-A Female] This is a great product. I'm using it in my office to connect my new work monitors to the Microsoft Dock. Will definitely purchase if needed in the future.

[Download] If you don't want to have a credit card saved with Microsoft, I think this is the easiest way to license Office on computers for personal use. B&H emailed me a digital code that I entered into my Microsoft account for a 12-month subscription. Done for another year.

[192 GB] When Microsoft banned computer hardware that didn't have the TPM chip and therefore would not run Windows 11, I said, That's it. Fool me once Microsoft. shame on you... What's to stop Microsoft from doing this again in the future? I began looking at alternatives and decided that running Windows 11 as a Virtual Machine (VM) inside a product called Parallels Desktop on a Mac was the way to go. I'm one who always assembled his own PC's and keeping my budget at $1000 for the box (no new monitor, keyboard, mouse, external devices) BUT, if I was going to run Windows 11 inside of my new Mac, the Mac had better be on the robust end of the spectrum. My former Macs have always had 8 to 16GB of RAM which was adequate for my usage. But since Windows 11 doesn't thrive until reaching 16GB, I decided that 32GB should be fine with this new Mac (it's perfect) Next, storage. VM's require a lot of storage space. I'm running a Windows 11 VM, Mac Sonoma (this is an additional Mac VM) and a Linux VM. My Mac now has 850GB free on a 2TB drive. Yes, get the 2TB storage! I have no storage insecurity which counts for a lot. Perhaps I'll try moving the VM's to external storage someday but I don't have resources for trying experiments now - using RAID arrays, etc. So now I have an expensive Mac (it's all relative, I know). I justify it by saying that I was going to have to buy my $1000 Windows box anyway plus I wanted the new Mac silicon. Installing Parallels Desktop and the Windows 11 VM is mostly an automated experience. Everything is fast.

[288-Pin DIMM] I run the new Microsoft Flight Sim a lot, and since it likes RAM, I decided to double mine to 64GB. Super happy I did. My last few RAM buys were Patriot and they've always exceeded expectations.
