Default [Gizmodo] Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 For Students Only $60

http://gizmodo.com/5040171/dealzmodo...udents-only-60

Quote:
Student editions of Microsoft Office have always been cheap—price it too high and all but the most Boy Scoutish of college kids will pirate it—but now their $60 Ultimate version has PowerPoint and Access tacked on. The pack comes with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, Publisher, OneNote, Groove and InfoPath, but most college students we know only really use Word, Excel and PowerPoint with a little Outlook thrown in if they haven't discovered any other alternative. This is Office 2007, so Mac users (which supposedly more and more college kids call themselves) are left out. Microsoft


Yeah, I know...Open Office, yada yada yada. Not as good as free Vista Ultimate(?), but I'm sure some are interested. I'll be getting one. Take it or leave it

My school offers Vista Ultimate and Office Ultimate for free, however I took advantage of this deal as well because I have quite a few computers I want Office Ultimate on.

3DS is now selling CATIA v5r18 to students for $75 for a 1 year license. That is a hell of a deal compared to what it used to be. It used to be $150 for a semester, and you had to wait for them to send you CD's. Now you can download it!

They must have renewed this. It's been $60 for about the last 2 years for students of higher education.

Not available to High School students? Damn!


...now I know how the Canadians, Brits, and Australians feel when we post deals that they can't get.
