Microsoft's "Ultimate Steal" for Students

Monday January 12, 2009
If you're considering updating your software, you may want to take a look at Microsoft's deal for students: The Ultimate Steal. Basically, if you can prove you're a college student, they'll give you an entire suite of programs for $59. That includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and several others.

Be sure to check with your college before buying this (or any other software program). Although it's a big savings from the regular price, some universities have contracts that allow their students software licenses at no cost.
