This is the best deal I could find in cloud storage.
Here here! I too was surprisingly converted to Office 365. I was running out of space on the free tier of Dropbox and before I plunked down $100/yr I checked out the alternatives.

I was shocked to find for that same $100, I would get 5 accounts (it's a family plan) each with:
- 1tb of OneDrive
- OneNote (saves $100/yr on the cost of Evernote)
- FULL LICENSE FOR OFFICE (all of Office: word, excel, powerpoint, access, outlook)
- Office for Mobile (which is free anyway)
- Office 360 web versions (think Google Docs but with a subset of Word/Excel...much better formatting)

It's a fantastic deal. My high school (now college) kids were thrilled to get "real office". They hated working with OpenOffice...mostly because only OpenOffice Docs is any real "almost just as good" part. The Powerpoint replacement is nowhere near as good, nor is the replacement for Excel. And there is no replacement for access.

Sorry...back to the topic at hand
