Beginning Sept. 12, Microsoft will launch a special Web-based promotion exclusively for students called The Ultimate Steal. Students who are actively enrolled at eligible educational institutions will be able to acquire Office Ultimate 2007 via the Web at the low student price of US$59.95. Calling this promotion "The Ultimate Steal" is spot on when you consider that this is a savings of over 90 percent of the retail price of Office Ultimate 2007. The retail price is what students might think they would have to pay, when much lower pricing such as this has been available to students for many years. This hasn't been thought through all that well. Off hand I can think of half a dozen acquaintances who legitimately have .ac.uk email addresses, but aren't students. Some are academic staff, whom Microsoft may have intended to benefit. Others are doing jobs they could do for other employers, they just happen to work at a university.
