Students with a University e-mail address can get Microsoft Office 2007 Ultimate for $60. It retails for $679.99, however, Microsoft is doing an awesome deal. You'll be able to get it for $60 as long as you have a student university e-mail address.

[BishieAddict]

aww there's no microsoft project. i'll probably get it anyways. thanks for the info.

[dark_chancellor]

I'll temporarily pin this so other students will know. Thanks.

[theedqueen]

thanks for the info. I already have Microsoft Office 2003 student/teacher edition and I'm pretty happy with it so I dunno if I should go get this. But it is only $60. Gah so tempting! I don't know what to do

[Cagalli]

Wow...I don't know whether I should get it or not. It's an awesome deal but I don't use those products often.

[silver-typhoon]

YES!!!! lol FINALLY a perk for spending thousands per year in university.

[xjuliephanx]

Universities with tech stores also offer it with deeper discounts. My university (which is an extremely SMALL one I might add) sells ultimate for $25 and Office 2007 Pro for $20. Of course I got both free from Microsoft for being part of the powertogether.com team Check with your school and see if they have a partnership with MS volume licensing!

[ngpossible]
