Office2K license

[DPN]

Id Office 2000 still licensed, or is it now free? I am a volunteer IT guy
for a small private school, and we cannot afford a site license for a newer
version.

Still need a license. Microsoft has, to my knowledge, never given away old
versions of their software. You probably should consider Open Office. Free
for all to use and it will read and write most Microsoft Office program's
data files. http://download.openoffice.org/2.3.0/index.html

Thanks for the quick response. We are considering OpenOffice, but have
concerns about it not being main-stream. I have never used it, but have
heard very good things about it. I believe the kids will still learn a great
deal using it, and hopefully be able to make the switch to MS Office at the
next level of their education/career.

We are going to make a plea to MS for at least a discounted site license.

Once again, thanks for your help!
