When you say "Microsoft free" do you mean Office or Windows?

7. You know, used to when you'd buy a computer... |
|
you'd get MS Word for free. The full version. Now you get a trial copy for like six months. You get Works for free, because apparently they think it's substandard. You also get Power Point and office as a trial. How screwed up is this? The high prices of computers used to be worth it for all the expensive soft ware they gave you. Now my $1777 Toshiba is looking waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over priced. Duckie
