MS licensing is as clear as mud and they do everything that they can to keep it that way.

I've done a couple of refurb units with them and been pretty happy with them.

On the MS Office thing? Not sure what that answer is. But I was looking for an upgrade license (to 7 Pro) from CDWG yesterday and discovered that doing a search brought me several different prices, and not just for different versions (student, etc.). I thinking it is part of the vagaries of MS's licensing structure.

Generally, I let calls from zip codes that I don't recognize go to voicemail. He's been calling every day for the last week, I finally picked it up today... before I realized it.

They don't leave messages anymore, but they still call...constantly.

I'm not in the market for computers, but I just got off the phone with a
guy
from CDI.  He sent me some pricing on refurb units, it looks fine.

But, then he also sent me in writing that he can add MS Office to any
machine for $20.  Is that even possible/legal?  I'm paying $52 (or
something
like that) from CDW on the State Select contract.

I told him I was buying Office Pro, not some limited version.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Abe
