Someone I know in College got the full Office Suite for £40 - extra £5 for the DVD. Very good deal.

Does the license expire when you are no longer a student?

Not if you buy the full version. There's a yearly option for something like £10, but that expires.
 
i think you need a .ac.uk email address to confirm you are a student which i dont think many secondary schools use

just read this


You must hold a valid email address at a UK, Jersey, Guernsey or Isle of Man educational institution, ending in either ‘.ac.uk’, ‘ac.im’, ‘ac.gg’ or ‘ac.je’.

If you are a Higher Education student, you must be enrolled in an undergraduate or postgraduate level course If you are a Further Education student, you must have at least 15 hours of scheduled contact time for your course. Also, you may be asked by Microsoft to provide proof of enrolment status (i.e. Student card). If you are unable to provide proof of enrolment, you will be required to pay the full retail price of Office Ultimate 2007 (approximate ERP £599.99).

You can always use the software4students option on this page if you don't have a college email account.

So with this you get all the software and cd key and can install it straight away? So whats stopping anyone from buying this instead of the non academic software and saving £££££'s?

Doesn't seem that strict though. I could select my old school perhaps?

If you have a valid .ac.uk address then you're eligible.
