Default Free legal software from microsoft :)
I get a large envelope in the mail today at work from Microsoft. Im always getting junk mail from them so I open this just cause of the large size of the envelope and low and behold what do I find?

A "Complmentary" copy of Office Professional 2003 and Office OneNote 2003.

Complete with install keys and everything. :shock:

Yep its from them. This is not the first time I have gotten free software from them.

Cd's got their hologram crap all over the front that makes them almost impossible to read at a quick glance.

what did you do? Accept junk mail for years from them and this is your reward?

Did they send it to you at work or at home? Where do you work?
