Hello
I found the above on ebay for a very cheap price. Can any one tell me what a
beta product is, and should I be suspisious of it. Is it even legal for me to
buy it.

Thanks

The Office 2003 beta was a "test" or "guinea pig" version that was
available free to selected users to use and find glitches in so that
Microsoft could fix the glitches before the official release of Office
2003 to the general public. I wouldn't buy it.

It is not legal for you to buy it, nor is it legal for the seller to sell
it. In fact, eBay does not allow the sale of beta versions. Do yourself -
and everyone else - a favour and report them to eBay (and PayPal if they're
using it). See http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/beta.html for more
information.
