    A possibility could be here, although it's Home & Student edition instead
    Amazon.com: Microsoft Office Home & Student 2010 Key Card - 1PC/1User

    Having multiple Office versions is totally possible and each one works flawlessly. But why would you want to keep the older ones?

    You have to buy a PC with it installed by the OEM. It's not available as a stand alone product and any copies not installed by the OEM at the time of manufacture are fraudulent and break the license agreement. In other words, it's illegal.

    So your saying if is not on my computer, I can't have it? How about cd copy or USB?

    Right, if it didn't come with the computer it's not otherwise available. It was pretty much a replaced for Microsoft Works that was included by the brands on their new computer but I haven't seen it on the last several new computers I've set up [8.0/8.1].

    If wanting free try LibreOffice, compatible with most Office files but doesn't have an E-Mail Client/application.

    If it wasn't on your computer when you bought it, you can't have it legally. It doesn't matter what the copy is, it's just that--A copy and illegal. It's issued to OEM manufacturers ONLY with a condition of a retail PC sale.

    You might have noticed that the links to it through a web search are dead-ended. MS has been cracking down on illegal copies of software. You might even find that if you did get a copy, it may not work. On top of that, MS could revoke your OS license.

    It's not available for individual sale and it's not free. That's just the way it is. If you want Office, go buy a student/home edition. I bought a 3-pack a couple of years ago and it wasn't that much for what you get.

    Hmmmmmm. That's strange. Was there a post deleted?

    MS has an ISO download. It works the same way as the Windows 7 download--You'll need the key.

    https://downloadoffice.getmicrosoftkey.com/

    Added: The link is via Microsoft. The support page that directs you to the link is very confusing and cluttered with other download options. If it doesn't make it through the forum police, I'll see if I can find the support link again. :)
