Microsoft giving out free software

in

Yep, Microsoft is handing out free software. No not IE7, because most of us wouldn't want it anyway. MS is giving out an express version of its Office Accounting 2007 product. They hope that you choose to upgrade to the full version which is not free.

I applaud this move. And while I do not have a need for an accounting software package, I look forward to seeing how others review the service. It is integrated with ADP and Equifax.

Some MS listed features:

  • Create quotes and invoices; track expenses and employee time
  • Enter data once and share it seamlessly with other Microsoft Office system programs
  • Manage payroll and taxes with ADP’s integrated payroll service
  • Store and organize all your customer, vendor, employee, and financial information in one place
  • Get business insights with over 20 customizable reports
  • Easily share your books with your accountant through Office Live
  • List items on eBay, track sales activity, and download and process orders
  • Email invoices and get paid faster with PayPal
  • Monitor your customers’ business credit in real-time through Equifax

Wow, Microsoft giving out free things!? I've always liked Micrososft's programs, so i'll give it a try. I also heard that Microsoft was giving out free office suit within embedded banner ads. What's gotten into Bill?
