cheap MS Office for NHS staff

bzooboy

my wife works in the NHS and I work in IT. By sheer coincidence I discovered that she can get MS office 2007 at a vastly reduced price (compared to the full price or best ebay privce I can get). We managed to get a copy of Office 2007 Enterprise which is the full suite for about £13.00.

The dvd includes

word
excel
powerpoint
outlook
one note
groove
publisher
infopath
access

This is remarkable value for money as it's comparable with the the top package on offer (Ultimate) which is priced on the site at £599.99 for the full package

Tried to post a link to the NHS info (requires a valid nhs trust email address to order) but not able to due to this being my first post. Go to the MS .co .uk home page and search for Home User Programme it should come back with a link to the NHS programme. You can also get other stuff at reduced prices (Xbox games etc).

If anyone is struggling I'll try and post links asap

not yet able to post links I'll try again some other time not sure if there's a way to pm on this forum but use that if you can and I'll send a link.

Forgot to say this is only a one user licence for the duration of your employment with NHS

call me old fashioned I like to have a disc in my hand - bad experiences from pc's crashing and burning ....not literally of course and downloads stopping halfway through due to isp. Plus the extra cost compared to £600 won't break the bank. Horses for courses.

You may have to disable user account control on Vista while you install the software depending on whether your account has admin access
