Microsoft has no plans to extend to Britain a deal allowing you to use three
copies of the Student and Home edition of Office, Live web services, and OneCare
security for $70 (£35) a year.
The Student Edition includes Word, Excell, Powerpoint and OneNote but not
Outloook; Windows Live web services includie webmail, instant messaging, and
photo hosting.
The deal includes three licences and so works out at around £12 per machine
(or user) a year. It could be seen as a further indication of pressure on
Microsoft pricing, but also a bid to coax people into using the company's web
services.
However Microsoft said today that there are no plans to introduce the bundle,
called Equipt, to Britain. A spokesman said: "We' keep you informed if there are
any changes."
