    Don't forget that charities can also get cheap Microsoft software, e.g. MS Office Pro Plus 2007 for £11+VAT, Vista Business Upgrade for £5+VAT etc. See details at http://www.ctxchange.org/ctx/

    I can highly recommend this, although you have to buy a minimum of 5 licences (e.g. 3 Office + 2 Vista).

    Indeed, pretty much any large organisation which has an enterprise agreement (over 250 computers) has access to a home use program.

    I think there is a similar scheme for teachers - you will probably need a @xxx.ac.uk email addy

  • For those of you who aren't Nurses, but would like something similar, look at Open Office - I use it and it saves/reads MS formats, but works much better - IMO.
    I have no connection to OpenOffice, just that I like OpenSource(free) software :D
