Okay I know this info has been out for a while now but still, this is pretty darned cool and it surprises me how many people don’t know about it:

http://www.theultimatesteal.com

This is, believe it or not, a Microsoft site. And yes, you can get MS Office Ultimate 2007 for 60 bucks.

The one catch is that you need a college/university e-mail address that ends in dot-edu (as in someone@some_college.edu) and need to be attending college. You can read up on all the rules here.

If you go to college you’d be stupid not to jump on this because the price is over 90% off retail.

If you’re a parent and have a kid going to college, GIVE THAT KID 60 BUCKS, have them go to the site and get this software.

For those asking "Well.. what do you get?"

You get:

• Access 2007
• Accounting Express 2007
• Excel 2007
• InfoPath 2007
• Groove 2007
• OneNote 2007
• Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager
• PowerPoint 2007
• Publisher 2007
• Word 2007

You get all the biggies. If you have the ability, grab it for the 90% off price. You’ve got until April 30 2008 before MS pulls the plug on this one.
