Title: Windows XP for $8.95
Post by: QuDDus on January 21, 2004, 06:58:19 AM: Thats right folks last night while I was in class. We were told that my school has a new deal with Microsoft that will allow all students who are enrolled in a cs,cis or anyother tech class to get MS programs dirt cheap.

Visual Net-$12
Front page-$10
Windows server-$15(I think)

There are many more programs we can purchase all dirt cheap I haven\'t looked at them all.

The only catch is you can\'t use them for business use. If your caught well jail time.

Still this is great.

Other than that, 90% off is always good.

ie- your school buys a ton of new computers but guess what OS it is?
