Uhhh... Don't think that's totally correct. I checked into it quite a
bit before I bought my academic version MS Word 4.0. There are some
things you don't get with the academic version. (Templates, some
documentation, etc.) I still like my academic version just as much if
not better then the $250 package! :-) Just a little FYI.
