Clearly state the cost of software at end of trial period

[Dcbandit2]

I am considering activating the trial period for Office 2003, but want to
know what the cost will be after the trial period. Do those that use a trial
version get a discount on the full version?

I would not bother purchasing the trial version from Microsoft. Tjhey will
most likely charge the full price for the software.

Go to Amazon.com or another reputable online reseller to purchase it - they
have better deals and with amazon.com you get free shipping in the US.

Please do not post your QUESTION as a "Suggestion for Microsoft".
You can find the suggested retail prices of all of the various
Office 2003 editions at
http://www.microsoft.com/office/editions/howtobuy/compare.mspx .
You can sometimes find a slightly lower price at vendors such
as amazon.com, Costco, and Office Depot. No, the trial version
does not get you a discount on the full version, but you may
qualify for upgrade pricing (discount) if you own at least one of
a several qualifying Microsoft products.

When you decide to convert your Office 2003 Trial version product to a
full retail perpetual license product, you must first purchase a
perpetual license product key from Microsoft or purchase a full retail
version of the product from either Microsoft or from any authorized
retail store.
