Ever tried to order a PC from Gateway or Dell without an MS app? Have you, huh? I have. Can't be done. If you want a PC from the #1 seller of PCs to consumers, or from the #1 seller PCs in the world, you have to have either MS-Office SBE or MS-Works. And yes, Dell and Gateway have to pay MS for this bundled software, therefore it is figured into the price *YOU* are paying. See my previous post.
