I made two cd's one for Office Pro 2007, first link (Core Office Pro 2007 apps) and second for add-ons (Business Contact Manager, etc..second link). Thanks!.

Here are the direct links to the files:

MICROSOFT OFFICE 2007 PROFESSIONAL minus Business Contact Manager for Outlook et. al.

http://msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net/ms...6/X12-30196.exe

MICROSOFT 2007 Business Contact Manager for Outlook et. al.

http://msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net/ms...0/X13-40150.exe

And the MD5s for reference:

63755d66246f105ced224979c0df77c6 *msft-dnl.digitalrivercontent.net/msoffice/pub/X12-30196/X12-30196.exe

There is suppose to be two downloads but they forgot part 2 on the sleeve that they mailed out.

If you want to make CD's for Office 2007 do the following, download the installers from Microsoft... Run them until you get to the CD key entry screen... now go to %TEMP% and there should ge a folder in there called OWP206.tmp or something similar... open that folder, copy the contents and burn it to a CD and now you have exactly what comes on the retail CD with auto play and all

the biz key wont work with ultimate right?

This is a no-brainer, but I'll answer, anyway. No.

It'll cost $139 for the Anytime Upgrade. I'm still debating whether or not I actually need Ultimate, but that's a pretty good price, cheaper than the OEM Ultimate. Personally I think it should have been $100, because that's the difference in price between the retail versions, but it's hard to bitch when you got Business for free.

hmmm..barneyt mentioned (post # 1317) that he downloaded the 64-bit version, and it worked with the key he got with the 32-bit edition. Wonder what that link is...

More than likely downloaded it via a torrent or newsgroups.

It's called capitalism and I think it's going to do well. Besides why should Microsoft make billions and then look down on other people who try to scrape by.

Because these Vista discs are very clearly labled "Not for resale". That makes selling them a violation of the license agreement, and possibly illegal.

I'm sorry, but why is it more then likely a torrent or newsgroup? How many tens of thousands of beta testers got a free copy of both 32 and 64bit iso's they downloaded from MS? The ISO has ALL versions on it, your version is determined by your key... so more then likely they got it from MS in a legit way at the current point in time

Well, I have no plans on selling my Vista and had no plans on selling Office. But, after seeing so many on Ebay, I'm considering selling Office (since it doesn't appear to have any NFR restrictions on the packaging) just to help pay for an upgrade to Vista Ultimate.

Doesn't MS usually have Ebay stop any auctions they feel are not legit?

At least I wouldn't feel as bad since the money would really end up going back to Microsoft to pay for the Anytime Upgrade.

Or you could simply take the file you downloaded and open it with WinRAR. You'll then see the same exact contents while skipping a few of your steps. Extract them all to a folder and burn them. It'll run fine with autoplay and everything.

Still haven't received Office here in Cincinnati.

I'm right across the river from you in Newport, KY. Hello neighbor :laugh:

We might get ours around the same time

Its called stealing. It could come under an example of a person biting from the hand which feeds them. Why should Microsoft do anything like this in the future if so many people are going to abuse it?

Its just wrong! reguardless of how people want to justify themselves.

Charlotte, NC here!

Today in the mail (USPS), I received Vista Business and Office 2007 Pro from the PowerTogether promo.

I did both offers and faxed in my W-9 the second day the fax could be accepted (after receiving the email about filling out the W-9).

Last name begins with "E".

Special thanks to Mark Brown, Microsoft, and Catalysis for a successful promotion! :D

      All these CEOs got the biggest boners thinking about firing employees for AI. Turned out it was just a wet dream.

      And the fact that the majority of people from Poland are white European Christians while the people you are complaining about in post after post are not is just a coincidence... Every sentence in your post I am replying to is racist nonsense. None of it is actually based on any facts whatsoever. All immigrants are seeking a better life too. It's literally the only reason they would risk everything and leave their homes, families, and homeland. They are working and contributing to the economy too, as you even admit. They get the same benefits your partner did AND that YOU are eligible for as well. That is one of the key things of the EU and a mark of a civilization. That is the definition of a society where everyone is given a chance, treated equally and fairly, and is judged by the content of their character, not their different skin color or which version of ignorant superstitious nonsense their parents lied about as children. Racists around the world said the same things about the Irish and Jews and Poles (like your partner) and...every other immigrant movement over the centuries. What's your family's heritage, by the way? Were your ancestors lied about with racist fearmongering crapola by self-entitled locals the same way as you are now? If someone like that said the same things about all people from Poland, like your partner, would they be right? Or would you want them to judge your partner based on who they actually were, not where they just happened to come from?

      Again, this is an irrelevant attempt to attack the messenger. The truth does not require any justification.

      Removed the blue and underline as you did not post a link. This would also  be considered spamming.
