The Ultimate Steal, an initiative by Microsoft to offer Microsoft Office Ultimate (a $679.95 value) to College students at a significant discount, was a huge success in it's last iteration! So much so that Microsoft has decided to bring the program back for another year and provide the entire Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 application stack for only $59.95 to qualified College students in 10 Countries!! Click here to register to be notified the moment the program goes live!

hello world
Why not merge this with DreamSpark? something like a DreamSpark store where u could get Office and Vista at a lower price... was just wondering.

How long 'till we see this in the UK then?

(the enter email address to find out form on their UK website doesn't seem to work for me Sad )

Just wanted to point people to the correct location: for the US it's http://theultimatesteal.com. Also wanted to mention The UK store will be coming - stay tuned! On that site there will be links to the UK store when available.
Great idea to combine with Dreamspark - will discuss with that team - though very different audiences (dreamspark for technical crowds and Ultimate Steal for everyone). Last: Make a buck by driving your friends as well! There is a US affiliate program where Microsoft will pay referral fees for completed purchases: details at http://studnet.theultimatesteal.com (different countries will have affiliate programs as well - stay tuned for those).

Procrastination is the key to success...Right?
Just an FYI.  I checked out the site today and I believe that starting Sept. 8, students can get Windows Vista Ultimate upgrade for 65 bucks or so.

I agree as well. If I could purchase this through Dreamspark I would grab it ASAP, easpecially since I haven't been given my .edu email yet. Validating with Dreamspark would be a huge help for the rest of us.
