We should all go back to Uni!

Have you heard the latest from Microsoft? Apparently, University students can buy the ultimate version of microsoft Office 2007 for just a mere $75! They went as far as to set up a website called `its not cheating’.

The Ultimate version gives you pretty much everything in the Office suite, including Word, Powerpoint, Access etc.

The only few catches are:
1. Require a university email address.
2. Credit card details.
3. Need to download the software.

So, has anyone tried it yet? Is this for real?

    Try OpenOffice (www.openoffice.org) instead.

    It’s FREE, reliable and does everything that you need from an ‘Office’ suite, and is compatable with Microsoft’s Office suite. Just download it.

    Like the others said, use OpenOffice instead. At $0, it’s unbeatable value, and it’s less crash-prone than Office.

    Mac users should try the native OpenOffice version available from http://www.neooffice.org.
