Thanks to our customers, the new Office is officially the best-selling Office edition yet, with more than one sold every second on average since it launched. And if that wasn't enough, in just over 100 days, Office 365 Home Premium has become a hit with more than 1 million subscribers, putting it on pace with some of the most popular services around.
