Office 2003 licensing not recieved well

edited October 2003 in Science & Tech
It seems Microsoft isn’t being very accommodating, as per usual, this time it's because it refuses to increase a free upgrade period for its business customers.

[blockquote]Basically, their beef goes a lot like this. When an initial two year term for an Office 2003 licence expires, system builders know that the software still isn’t theirs, and you have to stop using it.

Microsoft refuses to set terms and conditions for longer than two years, but upgrades during this two year period are supposed to be free.

If you’re not keen to take these terms and conditions, you have to pay full retail price for the software. And for users of 50 or more but less, say than 500, you have to go for this option.

    Then forsake system speed, ease of use, hardware support, file compatibility, and security.

    Thanks Linux!

    Have you ever used Linux Thrax? Or even tried to learn more about it when using it?

    If not then don't be a hypocrit, if you have then stop lying to yourself.
