I thought some of you might appreciate this...maybe you have kids in 
college, going to college..

Microsoft is offering for one day only, today, Office Ultimate Edition for 
$59.95. This has
everything in it, I think retail is like $500-600.

Ya need to have access to an email address at a .EDU though. You enter in 
the email addy, and
it emails a link to the address.

Not a bad deal, for excel, access, Word, Ourlook, PowerPoint

Got it for my wife, as she is working on her BS at Florida Atlantic

They will apparently have Windows Vista Ultimate for $65 at the same site on 
9/8/2008

I think the deal ends at midnight, or I think you had to have registered for 
it, and gotten the email by
midnight.
