    I think it mainly has to do with the Microsoft not worrying about accidently shipping to a country that has a trade embargo imposed by the US and/or UN.

      It has nothing to do with that. They do this in the U.S. so they can take advantage of tax laws.

            A Friend of mine who is a certified supplier, Sells them online for 50% off but he knows I build systems and we've known each other since we was about 5 years old so I get them a little cheaper.

              In other words, he's selling them for a loss.

                Just a heads-up. The Free Promotion for Vista and Office 2007 is "Sold-Out" so if you aren't already registered, you are out of luck for now. If you are already registered, you have a total of 30 days to meet the requirements of number of livemeetings attended.

                Regards,
                Slappy

                    Powerful systems.

                    Basically fast desktop computers, I Sometimes build servers if requested, but I don't install anything on those as well if there going to have a server, I'm pretty sure they can sort that bit out them self (if requested I will install OS for them).

                      Was the Office 2007 the x64 version. Because I've read that the x64 version of Office 2007 is still in Beta format as far as I can see.

                      So I'm presuming it's the x32 version
