US – Microsoft’s offering Office 2007 to students for $US60 starting next Wednesday. Valid student ID and email address required. AU – Microsoft hasn’t let us know whether this offer is happening in Australia too – we will keep you posted.
Microsoft did something like this here in AU at the start of the year. From memory I paid about $70 for Office 2007 Ultimate. I imagine at this price there is no upgrade price for future releases, although I don’t know if I would need them. 2007 has everything I need (and the rest).
The promotion was called “It’s Not Cheating” here in AU (http://www.itsnotcheating.com.au) which started on February 26, 2007 and ended by 11:59PM (Sydney time) on May 28, 2007.

@Shane: It was AUD$75 not $70.

On the bottom of the website there is a link to Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/australia/education/unistudentoffer/default.mspx )for those who thinks this is too good to be true.
