Microsoft cuts Office price on new Macs | |
|
||
| Time: 03:32 EST/08:32 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

Microsoft has an unusual Oktoberfest for Mac users: a big discount on Office when purchased with a new computer. Beginning Tuesday, buyers of new Macs can pick up the full version of Office v. X for $199, or about $200 less than the full purchase price. The promotion ends Jan. 7, 2003. As good as that deal appears, Office is cheaper for Windows users, particularly those getting the product on new PCs. New PC buyers pay as little as $100 for Office. Mac users not buying a new computer also are stuck with paying full price, as much as $299 for the Office v. X upgrade or $499 for the full version. | ||

Well, that should move some boxes of Office V.x :)
I got a similar deal, $150 rebate, when I bought my G4 iMac, but it wasn't quite this good. Office V.x is pretty incredible. I'm glad to see it finally priced well. Microsoft just might learn how well nicely-written and nicely-priced software sells. TL |

| They only had to lower the price, because demand for OSX is so low. |
