[bworks_shop] Rethink -- Techsoup Budget Buster

[Doug Dillard]

Ok -- I was about to place my first Techsoup Order for Microsoft Products.
Here is the list, subject to the minimum 5 seats/licenses per product, and
as I was ready to order from Techsoup before I cancelled my order.

   Title

#

Unit Cost

Office 2003 Standard – English (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook)

50

$16.00

Office Professional Plus 2007 - English

5

$20.00

Windows 7 Enterprise Upgrade 32-Bit *(requires /request a MAK key*)*

5

$9.00

*That amounts to $800 for Office 2003 + $100 for Office 2007 + $45 for Win
7.  This seems out of range to me.   Should we rethink Office?  -- We could
switch to Open Office in the future.  Will Maggie be willing to write me a
check for nearly $1000 as her last act as treasurer?
