Microsoft Office (Home and Student) 2007 at just 2190 Rs, with free upgrade to Microsoft Office (Home and Student) 2010
Product: Office (Home and Student) 2007
Price: Rs. 2,190.00 only
Features:
- Pretty cheap, in other places, same Office Home and Student 2007 is about $149.95 (around RS 7497.5, if 1$ = 50Rs) as stated at: http://office2010.microsoft.com/en-us/buy/
Surely price is not going to be long – I think they are doing this because Office 2010 would come soon & they want to sell 2007 off the stores as many as possible. As per 2010 & 2007 version it does not matter much both can read write .doc & .docx formats which is for example used to build a resume. Fortunately you there is an option to upgrade from 2007 to 2010 for free!
- 1 license allows for installation on as many as 3 computers
- Has Word 2007, Excel 2007, PowerPoint 2007, and OneNote 2007
- Outlook 2007 is not present
- If urs is 64 bit (instead of 32 bit) Windows, some options are not there
- To get Free upgrade to "Office Home and Student 2010":
- Eligible Office 2007 software must be purchased (from Microsoft or an authorized reseller) and activated between March 5, 2010, and September 30, 2010
- To activate your new product key: Launch the product and click Options > Resources > Activate my product.
- Request your Office 2010 product by October 31, 2010, using your activated "Office 2007 Product Key" and "Office 2007 dated sales receipt"
- Internet access is required in order to verify eligibility and to request the Office 2010
- You will receive an e-mail message from us letting you know when your Office 2010 product is available
- One Office 2010 product per qualifying Office 2007 purchase, limit twenty-five per person.
Sources: http://www.microsoftstore.co.in/microsoft/90/product/Office-Home-and-Student-2007.aspx
This means, nearly 4 months are there to buy & activate this product once, also a month more to get 2010 version
I think this is good option to buy, even better than buying Windows OS which will only get updates for a certain time, but office is like can-say forever
I think MS Office can work on Nokia E series too! This would mean you can work on same document from mobile and PC!
I was seeing for this small figure price since very long time, I even gave the price feedback to be near 2000Rs for Indian market to MS while filing bugs on 2010 office, dint expect would come true
Think of 1 license being used in 3 computers, for example, 3 guys buying one office product, i.e; 2190/3 = 730 Rs, this is like, for each guy, buying a relatively good shirt but for a life time! Sure you don’t need to run for software just to create a resume that would increase ur salary in lacs! with just a product less than a thousand. This way you can contribute to MS too, for building the super cool Windows 7 & Office 2010 like software.

Download Opera Web Browser...
My favorite, really a productive Web browser.
You can do all these:
# You can book mark a website (may be a 1000 websites) in your home, and access them anywhere in the world!, thru Opera-Link! (nothing to carry at all! no need to remember 1000 websites, nor no paper writing required!)
# You can speed up you Web browsing about 2 to 3 times!!! thru Opera-Turbo. This would mean you can really do smart-fast browsing all you want in no time!!! even with your very slow Internet connection! The images and all are compressed at Opera site and gives you blasting speed! that you can image!!!
# Now that browser has Tabbed browsing, yeah small tabs that you can see on top, with a small close button to each, and each tab can load a different page, use Ctrl + Click, i.e; while clicking the mouse on a website link on a page, press you Ctrl button on the left bottom, so that you can open that website clicked in a new tab!, yeah so what when you have opened a 100 tabs? you can read and if you want to close 20 tabs and rest 80 you want to check them later, may be tomorrow? Ok,here it is! With Opera-Mouse-Gestures you can "just" move you hand while pressing the Right-button of your mouse, in an "L" shape! thats all!!! you tab is closed! you dont need to go all the way up to the X button to close it! just gesture it with your mouse and thats all! There are many-many gestures like that to minimize, etc. of a tab.
And when you are in a hurry just close the Window with X on the right-top of the screen (which is optional), And Shutdown the computer. When you reopen the Opera browser tomorrow, it pops up if you wan to open yesterday's (last browsing) session. Say OK, and you are at your place!
