For college students who want Office 2007, but don’t want to pay Microsoft a fortune, the software maker is offering another option: Steal it.
Well, actually Microsoft isn’t encouraging piracy. Rather it is launching a promotion, dubbed “Ultimate Steal,” in which college students can get the ultra high-end Ultimate edition of Office for just $60.
The promotion runs through April 30 and starts Wednesday in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. It launches next week in France, Italy and Spain. To be eligible, Microsoft said students have to be “actively enrolled” in a higher education program and have an e-mail address from that school.
“We’re listening to students who have told us they need Microsoft Office for their studies and want more flexible ways to get the latest version,” Alan Yates, general manager of Worldwide Education at Microsoft, said in a statement. “The Ultimate Steal is the latest in a long history of providing compelling academic offers for students.”
Microsoft tried the promotion earlier this year as a pilot program in Australia, before deciding to offer it in the U.S.

I’m a huge fan of Adobe products, but unfortunately my (as well as many others) budget really can’t handle the thousands of dollars it takes to purchase their products. So, here is a list of excellent programs that are completely free and capable of getting the job done.

Ready to watch Ugly Betty in high-def? If your computer screen can handle HD video (a minimum 1024 x 768 resolution is recommended), you don’t need to buy an HD TV.

There are two levels, or tiers, of Network Time Protocol (NTP) time servers that are available on the Internet. The NTP is defined in Request for Comments (RFC) 1305.
The first-level time servers are primarily intended to act as source time servers for second-level time servers. The first-level time servers may also be capable of providing mission-critical time services. Some first-level time servers may have a restricted access policy.
Second-level time servers are intended for general SNTP time service needs. Second-level time servers usually enable public access. It is recommended that you use second-level time servers for normal SNTP time server configuration because they are usually located on a closer network that can produce faster updates.
It is recommended that you research any time server selection to ensure that it can meet your specific time server requirements.
