Microsoft Equipt – The package for home users
September 20th 2008
Browsing around this morning, I come across some information on Microsoft’s website advertising Equipt. Equipt is a new subscription based software package geared towards home users that provides three nearly essential applications:
- Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007
- Microsoft Live Onecare for better PC security and performance
- Windows Live tools – Inluding Messenger, Writer, Mail, and Photo Gallery.
This package is bundled and sold as subscription based service with a yearly price tag of $69.99. Many families have multiple PCs in the home so they’ll be glad to learn that this subscription covers three PCs in your home.
There are two points that would be subscribers know:
- You MUST renew each year. This package is subscription based.
- You CANNOT use it at work or for business purposes. It is a violation of Microsofts TERMS and Conditions of use.
You can find more about Equipt along with the rest of Microsoft’s products at www.microsoft.com. You can purchase at your local office supply or electronics store.
