Yes,
The version that comes with the system is a trial version. Once you are
committed, they want to charge you for it. 
Contact me offline if you need to know my solution, Chuck.

Hi Folks,

 

I had a user come to me (one of our Sales folks) and tell me an interesting
story.

 

He bought a Compaq/HP computer 6 months ago and it came with Windows XP Home
and MS Office (Word, Excel, Power Point, Access, etc.) and he had been using
them up until a few weeks ago when he started getting a box/boxes popping up
telling him he needed to register and giving him a price...

 

Any of you aware of anything like this ?

 

Thanks !

 

Chuck
