    Putting a fresh install of Windows on the internet is like giving a nymphomaniac a job at an STD clinic and then slipping viagra into their coffee. It may seem like a good idea at the time, but trust me, it isn't.

    The 3 user editions of windows home premium are awesome value, same story with office 07. Costs a bit more but will save you dosh overall.

    And just to add a little bit of useless info. I have officially decided that windows 7 is equally as stable as ubuntu, and that is saying something I've been taking a record of instances of instability occuring and ubunutu has the lead by one instance over roughly 3 months of usage.

    Last time I checked, it was only the library of business software - no Win9x/ME or games.

    Not quite true but there are some advantages in the subscription deals.

    Oh your right, no games, and do you really want win9x or ME? It does give you Windows 3.1 though

    Only Office Home and Student has a 3 user license.

    My Mum's partner got sucked in by ebay sellers selling Office 2007 Professional and marketing them as 3 user licenses. Wrong. Clearly states that it is Home and Student on the packaging and fail to activate when you try.

    (They are licensed for 2 'users' - a laptop and a desktop though)

    I rang Microsoft and they wouldn''t do anything about it other than deny the oblivious user (we're not all geeks) a second or third activation. I don't understand why they wouldn't follow up on the misleading sale of their product.

    Anyone know anything about this?
