I don't go for 2 weeks yet! I hope the offer is still on then

[Brucelles]

Anyway, I can't be bothered. My daughter is a student and could buy it, but she's happy with Office Pro 2003, so it's not really much of a bargain.

[Hasnath]

might grab this as it does seem quite a bargain, but can I install this on my laptop and desktop?

Yes it contains 2 licenses to do just that!

Anyone know where abouts in the order process you select that you want it on disk instead of download?

[MarcLister]

Yeah its a cracking deal this. As soon as student loan comes through I'm a getting this.

You get the exe files I believe for the £40. Someone on another forum asked how to extract the contents of the exe files so he could save them to a DVD and make an install disc from that.

You pay extra if you want some actual real non-fake genuine DVDs sent out to you.

I dont think they do physical disks right now but will in future for a small charge (read on another forum), but couldnt you just download a ISO image copy through a torrent and then use your legitimate code?

Download Office Ultimate 2007: If you don’t want to download, you can also order a physical DVD during the purchase process for a small charge.

Haha I knew I'd seen that somewhere.

Ahhh, but where do you do that though? There's no point in the process to select physical disk...Hasnath pointed out that they don't do it yet, so I'll chase that up and see what's going on.

[Mblaster]

Awesome deal, I'll pick this up along with Vista Business Edition (free from MSDN ) when I get my new PC.

For those of you who are downloading it and burning it to a disc, it's a lot nicer to extract it and then burn the extracted files. I believe this also works for most Microsoft self-extracting archives.

Go to the command line and type

X12-30307.exe /extract:"C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\Office\"

Obviously replacing User with your username, this will make a folder called Office on your desktop, and inside will be the contents of the CD, even an autorun.inf file.
