Re: Office 2007 Enterprise Install

Hi Bob

I just finished checking with 2 Retail outlets 1 in Florida and one in NY. They both claim the same. Yes they can order it but it comes with 5 Cals and the price in Miami is $2595 and in NY $2365. It is something that they do not carry and they have to order and will tale up to 4-6 weeks before they receive it. I do not think that an ordinary person that uses the computer a few times a week will buy something at that price. It is very cost restrictive to most. Maybe this is different in some other States but this is what I got until now.

Hi Peter,

The 'retail', or probably more accurately the 'non volume license' package of MS Office 2007 Enterprise edition does exist :)
There's a 60 day trial of it available for download
http://microsoft.com/products/info/product.aspx?view=22&pcid=25cc2435-87b5-4b2d-b6a3-2d07fca748d5&type=ovr

or through
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/bb188203.aspx
and it's the 'retail' version that was originally included as 'Enterprise edition' for the MS Partners Action Pack (10 installs) and
certain MSDN subscription types.

It's the same product as the Volume license one except that the files needed to use the Office 2007 Customization Tools (OCT) [
http://microsoft.com/office/ork ] for deployment have not been included and unless they've updated the download pages recently it
doesn't mention that the download to try out for Admins doesn't have the Admin tools.

For companies who have volume license programs and if I recall, school licenses, those license holders can also make the Enterprise
edition under the Home Use/Education programs.

I think Bob is wrong on this one. It is not available in a Retail version. If it is then it will be cost restrictive to the ordinary
person because Enterprise is named as such for the Volume License that it carries with it..
It can be purchased from an employer who has bought one and sells 1 license to one of his employees. He recoups some of the cost
that he put out for the purchase.
My 0ffice 2003 Enterprise with 25 CALS cost me $3900 at the time of my purchase a few years ago. I believe that the Enterprise
version but do not hold me to it comes in 10,25 and an unlimited license versions and the price reflects the amount of CALS..
