Christine, In the past I've acquired Microsoft software from Tech Soup's DiscouTech program www.techsoup.org. You have to be a 501c3 with a budget of less than $5m to qualify. Includes desktop applications and server OS & client licenses. Macromedia & other software also available.
Gifts in Kind www.giftsinkind.org offers Adobe products, but requres a yearly subscription to receive discounts. Museum folk may also be interested to know about WebJunction - funded by Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in conjunction with grants they give to public libraries. While most of it is aimed at that group they offer (for the moment) free online courses on network & computer maintenance, web site development, Linux, discussion boards about public access computers & other issues. Also includes hardware/software buying guides. P.S. You don't have to be a library to join!

If you are, how did you get it? Thanks and have a nice day.
