hopefully this will be the trend in more countries.

On second thought it's still not that great: http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi

HERE is the Office 2007 prices, however I will never ever use Overcockers again after they messed me around few times on orders, so be weary of them is all I say.

Dont think the OEM copy comes with crap, thats just once the manufacturer like dell gets their hands on it.

Getting around OEM isn't hard for retailers. Take Newegg for example - if you don't buy anything with an OEM piece of software, they usually send it along with something like a spliced piece of wiring that you really don't have any use for, but it is hardware.

! wow !

Id be more likely to go for home premium @ £78 - oh, and these OEMs are clean versions, but can only be activated on one machine (for teh noobs wink.gif ).

I hope these prices stick around - oh, and you dont need to buy hardware wink.gif
