How is this good deal? Most colleges offer office for free.

Maybe with the Xbox Live and Controller bundling, if there isn't a firestick offer this year?

How do you actually do this deal. Do I have to login to the new PC with my edu address or can I login with my regular email and then confirm it later with my EDU?
