Isn't that a litle llike the drug dealers selling you the first few hits 
cheaply to get you hooked? 

Sorry, I didn't mean to compare Microsoft to drug dealers.  That 
comparison is unfair  -  to the dealers.  :-)

And not just to employees. I can't remember actual numbers but when my son
told me what they pay for MS stuff from the school (college) bookstore it
blew me away... Cheaper than cheap.

Well... Since they sell it to their employees for about $5 a pop... And 
they
made 10 billion in sales this last quarter... I think they can afford to
send out a few free copies of Office.
