Office PE 2003 - trial ver or real?

[mwaz]

I received a Office PE 2000 CD as a promotion. (Actually it came with another CD called OneNote 2003 as part of the new Microsoft Office System.) It says it is a full version and I can't find anywhere in the fine print that indicates it has a trial period. How can I find out if its going to stop functioning in 3 or 6 months? If it will I don't want to bother installing it.

I believe the time-limited trials are pretty clearly marked on the CD.
Where did you acquire the discs?

Hi,

Do you by chance work for a government agency? I work in the IT dept for a
local Government and I believe it may have something to do with the new MLA
agreements. Everyone in our dept got one and they are full versions.
