ItProPortal.com - A group of computer building firms have come forward to claim that Microsoft’s Technology Access Programme (TAP) is pushing them out of the UK education market.
Speaking to a UK channel publication, companies including NS Optimum and VeryPC have revealed that they are seeking legal advice after the scheme adversely impacted their business.
The IT giant’s TAP was recently overhauled – besides a name change from Shape of the Future, the programme also cut the price of Windows for OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to just $1, as well as loosening criteria for qualification.
