The Free Software…

  • Article

At the launch events we're doing for Vista and Microsoft Office, we're giving away Office 2007 Professional to people who've registered and attended the sessions. Because I wanted to make sure it all worked, I took the resource disk that you get, and ran through the download and installation process.

I wanted to mention that you need to make sure to use the registration key that is in the cardboard case for the resource disk and NOT the trial key that you get from the web site.

So the steps to install and use the software are this:
