Is Front Page part of any MS Office Suite?

Never buy software from eBay! Amazon.com has it for $64 and it's
completely legal.

The ebay sellers have thousands of feedbacks, so I assume theirs is too,
or they would have been stopped. Ebay has Microsoft patrolling it,
shutting down the auctions of illegal sellers.

They wouldn't even allow me to sell my Windows 97 CDROMS a few years back,
they shut my auction down, because it wasn't new and sealed, etc.

Er, what reality are you living in? It certainly isn't this one. Let me let
you in on a little secret, darling: FEEDBACK IS MEANINGLESS!!I I bought
Photoshop CS2 from a seller with a 5,000 rating - he claimed it was brand
new, sealed in the box, etc. He wanted £100 for it (so the price didn't
intimate anything untoward). I received a pirated copy - the only use it had
was a coaster.

The seller was a liar. He claimed it was an unwanted birthday present in the
listing. He then claimed he worked in a photographic studio and he'd been
given it by the owner (another lie - he was a Saturday boy in Jessops).


So, I obtained his phone number and spoke to his mother. I then did a little
bit of digging. Turns out that most of his satisfied buyers were actually in
receipt of stolen goods. He'd been stealing small, but reasonably expensive,
items from Jessops (flash memory cards, ink cartridges, paper, etc.) and
hawking them on eBay. He'd also been selling pirated software.

His mother told me he was intelligent and was hoping to go to university.
Well nicking from your employer is hardly my definition of 'intelligent'.

There is absolutely *NO WAY* he could have been given PS as a birthday
present - he was one of eight kids living in a council house on a very
dilapidated estate.

So, just because someone has a great deal of positive feedback does not mean
they are honest.

Er, no it doesn't. Where in Hades did you get that ridiculous notion from?!

Er, no. They shut it down because you were selling something that didn't
exist.

Look, I've seen people selling obvious bootleg copies of Office. And
I've seen people BUYING the beta versions of Office software. For
heavens sake - it was free! And these people were bidding around $60.
Microsoft can only do so much.

Yes they can, and they patrol Ebay reading the auctions and shutting
down the illegal ones.

There's no way in hell I'd buy software from anything other than a
"for real" retailer. And by the way - Windows 97? There was no such
critter. I'm not surprised it was yanked.

No, it was my Office 97 suite that I tried selling around 2000 when I
got rid of the computer that I had it installed on, and they shut down
the auction the first day.

If you choose to risk *your* hard-earned money buying software from
an unknown source, knock yourself out. I, on the other hand, will
forewarn people against doing that.

Who cares?

Not just a great deal, I look at the percentages. When someone has 99.4%
positive and 2500 sales, that's great to me. And I know that Microsoft
patrols every auction for their products on Ebay.

Er, no it doesn't. Where in Hades did you get that ridiculous notion
from?!

From them shutting down one in which I was trying to sell their software
that I legally owned ( Office 97 at the time, years ago ) , but because
it wasn't in its original retail package they shut me down. They're all
over Ebay.

Er, no. They shut it down because you were selling something that
didn't exist.

Brain fart, it was Office 97 at the ime.

Hmm. ok.

dreamweaver ain't so hot
it isn't total rubbish either
you get what your pay for
but on the other hand, when you get into making web pages, you start off on
crappy editers like frontpage
and you end up using notepad type tools basicly

if you need tool, the web is stuffed with ones for making webpages
google is your friend (at least until it turns into the new microsoft)
