Back in the day, I bought a "partner" package for $400 from Microsoft because it gave me a bunch of licenses for XP, Office 2007 and, in fact, all Microsoft products including the various server products. The reason I have the XP virtual machine is so I can use the Office stuff when necessary and to be able to test websites with Inertnet Explorer. -- -- Steve -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
