I didn't know there was such an offer. Is that for recent purchases of
Office 2004? Is it still going on? Where would I find out about it?

The offer ended in mid January. There was a limited window of time one could
purchase the "Office 2004 Student & Teacher Edition" in order to qualify,
something like from October of 2007 to mid January 2008. The only cost for
the upgrade was the shipping charge. You could choose to receive one of two
versions of Office 2008, the aforementioned one or the new Student and
Teacher edition.

I just randomly typed a bunch of letters and numbers. : )

Let's recap:

I try to help someone by posting details of my experience with Microsoft
Office product keys, taking special care to supply a fake code by
punching random characters on my keyboard. Then Matthew "AssHat"
Gardiner here accuses me of piracy and suggests I be reported to
Microsoft's anti-piracy group.

How very cordial of you, Mr. Matthew. You sure know how to make friends.
I bet you get along great with the gals, too! ; )

With that aid, as a paid Microsoft Office user of many years, I suppose
I'm interested in Paul Iracy as well. I'd love to meet him. So please do
introduce us, Big Matt!
