    Some of the 'training' for the exams are available as powerpoint presentations (the small business and licensing ones are) and all you do is have the relevant ppt open and do a find on the keyword in the question. The time limits are plentiful enough that you can go and make a cuppa half way through doing it if you get bored...

      I bought Office Pro 2003 about a year ago for £17 through a link I found on the MoD intranet, no-one ever asked if I was a contractor.
      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          It is just marketing spiel. I dunno why they are bothering. Is/was there some EU guidline or something that they need to conform to?

              Sadly not it was a while back, it's just a link to a website so anyone that can supply a MoD post number should be able to buy.

              I'll PM you if I find it.

                basically download each of the cds as full images which you then just burn to disk.

                Cost me about £60.

                Works for me.
                Why pay for warez when you can just grab them from torrent by yourself???

                Seriously do you honestly think it is legit? If not why did you pay for it in the first place?

                Best thing to do is ask MS if it is legit. I just by my stuff from MS resellers. You know it is legit and OEM copies aren't too bad if you CO can classify as a system builder.
