| 66243 | 2002-07-28 11:52:00 | Hey Guys Just wondering what is the policy for resale of software such as Office xp, I've seen this for sale in Cash Converters and would be alot cheaper for me to buy it this way. Can this product be re-registered with a new owner or is this classed as piracy ?:| Thanks JJ |

Watch Office XP and 2000 though as it needs to be activated over the web to work, and you cant guarantee what the status would be until you try? What sort of $ do they want? |

| 66247 | 2002-07-28 13:25:00 | Yep, I suppose I could always take it back. Word is on the street, they have already been taken to the cleaners for piracy. Certain staff member making backups for a customer. JJ |

| 66249 | 2002-07-29 02:19:00 | Hey Yea it's a academic version, This I need for assignments and so forth. I'm having trouble with my Office 2K mainly in Access with wizards and form building within Access. I'm not sure if the errors will rub off onto the new office package. JJ |
