the Ultimate steal steal review

The Ultimate steal

that can be found here
http://www.microsoft.com/student/office/en-gb/default.aspx

is a great chance to acquire windows 7 and office 2010 (with disks) on the cheap for 97.99£.

However you can have both of them from the same website for 48£.

A few days ago a friend bought Windows 7 upgrade from that website and then, when he downloaded the copy he realized that by getting back to the choices page he could add the backup disk of the office 2010 for 9£ without adding the actual download for 49.99£. Saving exactly 49.99£ which is a steal indeed.

Now nor he neither I are sure how this is possible, since there is nothing official mentioned in the website about such a bargain, and it may as well be a bug on the website. Anyhow I suggest to make haste before they fix it, but you do so on your own risk and I will not be held responsible if it doesn't work anymore.
So one goes to the website mentioned above,

provide your email address and click on the link you receive,


Choose the windows 7 for 30£ (+the backup disck for 9£)


buy them (and download them)

then go back to the purchase options and it allows you to buy the office 2010 backup disk only instead of the download and the backup disk


of course this way to acquire both products is probably questionable, since you don't actually buy a license to use the software, but only a backup disk, so afterwards you will need to go hunting for a working office key which is most probably not very legal.

The problem of course is that software companies can lure you into any kind of license agreement they want and if you wish to comply you may use the program. If not DO NOT USE IT.

Neither me nor my friend can be held responsible for the way the above information is used. Act responsibly
