OPK Master Kits include the master software images to preinstall on the
systems you build, and are essential for you to be able to sell 2007
Microsoft Office
Medialess License Kits.
There are two separate Microsoft Office OPK Master Kits:
1.
Business* and Home and Student 2007
2.
Ultimate 2007 (available Spring 2007)
*Microsoft Office Business suites consist of Basic 2007, Small Business
2007, and Professional 2007.

When you receive your Preinstallation Kit, it is sealed with the OEM
Partner License Agreement and number on the outside. By opening this
Kit you are agreeing to the licensing terms and conditions as set
forth in the terms and conditions.

Microsoft is introducing Medialess License Kits (MLK)
for selling 2007 Microsoft Office OEM licenses in
the System Builder Channel. This helps you simplify
your operations and provide a great out of the box
experience for your customers. |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|

Medialess License Kits contain suite specific
product keys which enable end customers to "unlock"
either Microsoft Office Basic 2007, Small Business
2007, or Professional 2007. |
|
These kits also contain licensing information for
the end user. Once you have installed the master
image from your
Preinstallation Kit* you will include the MLK in
the box with the new PC. This kit does not contain
any backup media. Customers can obtain backup media
directly from Microsoft. Learn more below.
* Preinstallation Kits are officially called the
Microsoft Office OPK Master Kit.
|
|

You can acquire the Medialess License Kits** from
the same channel through which you currently
purchase your Microsoft Office licenses. Contact
your distributor for more information.
**Medialess License Kits need to be sold within 90
days of PC purchase. |
|

|

 |
|
|
|
 |
|
|

Although the new Medialess License Kits do not
contain media, customers who purchase 2007 Microsoft
Office software with a new PC are eligible to
receive backup media for up to 90 days after
purchase. Customers can acquire backup media via the
following methods: |
|
|
-
Customers can go to
http://www.microsoft.com/office
/backup
to receive their recovery media
directly from Microsoft.
-
Beginning in April, customers will
be able to download a copy of their
media from
www.microsoft.com .
-
Customers can also use the Windows
Vista Business backup feature to
create a system backup.
-
System builders can reinstall 2007
Microsoft Office onto their machine.

2007 Microsoft Office Suites are Easier to Sell with
a New PC.
The best way to offer 2007 Microsoft Office suites
is preinstalled on the PCs you build. Customers
prefer preinstalled software because it offers
convenient use right out of the box. Plus your
customers receive optimal pricing for Microsoft
Office purchases made at point of sale.
If you do miss the opportunity to sell 2007
Microsoft Office suites at the point of sale, you
now have a second chance to sell 2007 Microsoft
Office licenses post-PC sale. With 2007 Microsoft
Office you can:
-
Sell 2007 Microsoft Office suites post-PC sale.
-
Offer a 60-day free trial, to demonstrate the
value of 2007 Microsoft Office suites to
business users.
