This offer is called "The Ultimate Steal" and I have to say I can see why. Microsoft is now offering Office 2007 to university students for the sort of price that would normally suggest this was a con or stolen software, although as Steve Clayton has already verified, it is real. The Offer is simple
"Get Microsoft® Office Ultimate 2007 for just £38.95 to own or £12.95 to use for one year"
As I said this is only open for people in education, but if you go to The Ultimate Steal presented by Microsoft you can get lots more info. A summary, but not complete, eligibility requirements are:
- You must hold a valid email address at a U.K. educational institution ending in .ac.uk (for example, [email protected])
- Be actively enrolled with at least 0.5 course load.
- You must be able to provide proof of enrollment status (ie, student card) upon request by Microsoft. If you are unable to provide proof of enrollment, you will be required to pay the full retail price of Office Ultimate 2007 (approximate ERP £599.99).
Here is how it works:
- Buy the product offer you want
- Download it or order a CD
- Enter your product key and use away
You can download the Office Ultimate 2007 trial software anytime but to gain unrestricted access, you’ll need to activate it by entering a genuine product key!
