The catch is you have to be enrolled in an Australian university :(

530550 2007-03-06 03:14:00 Well, my full retail version of Office 2007 Pro direct from MS cost only half of that, with free shipping as well. Quite generous of MS in my view. godfather (25)

That's because you're "special" godfather. Regular customers like us aren't as fortunate.

Otherwise, if you're willing to give up a day of your life, you can get a copy of Office 2007 Pro (or Vista Ultimate) for $199+GST by attending one of these events: www.microsoft.com

I've heard on the grapevine that if you're a university lecturer or professor, you can attend that event free of charge (with a special invitation), and still be eligible for the giveaway.

530553 2007-03-06 05:37:00 ok i've got to ask how did you get it that cheapPossibly through the Home User Program - organisations with special license arrangements with Microsoft get the Home User Program available for their staff, which means the staff can then "buy" Office for the price of shipping ($20 odd - Microsoft must use expensive couriers).
