Do i qualify for a student licence?

If your kids are at school, you qualify from what I've read.

"This product can only be sold to Parents of children in Full Time Education, Students in Full time Education, or any person in any form of Education & Educational Institutions, Administrative Offices & Boards of Education, Public Libraries, Public Museums and Charities."
 
dont confuse my name with the above lol

yep you qualify,

try findind somewhere that has it in stock though :(

i have managed to source one, but paid a bit over the odds, my missus works for the brownies, so we qualify. Saved a fair bit thank god.
 
With regards Office 2007 - the product name has now changed.
It is called Office 2007 Home/Student - You don't need to have anybody as a student or teacher in your household at all.
The package contains Word, Excel, PowerPoint & OneNote - Notice it doesn't include Outlook.
So under WinXP you would use another e-mail program, possibly Outlook Express.
Vista has it's own e-mail client built-in too.

The package costs around the £90 mark and can be installed on any three machines in your household.
There is basically no restriction to this license so long as it is used in a non-commercial environment.
Working from home would be considered commercial - this license is aimed purely at home users.

It doesn't have Access either though. Why are MS selling Home packages of Office without Access?!:confused:

Yes it's no longer aimed at just students. You do have to put up with the words 'non-commercial use' across the title bar of your applications but for the price it's well worth it (Word 2007 on its own is worth the asking price). I do wish Outlook 2007 had been included but OneNote 2007 is an excellent note taking application.
 
Publisher does seem slightly odd (you would have thought that it's the sort of thing that home users like) - but Access and Outlook really aren't very "home user" sorts of tools, I doubt many people would have use for them.

Publisher has never been part of the standard off package.

Outlook is defiently useful for a home user though although I agree about access.
