PROHITBITED SOFTWARE PER AMAZON.COM POLICY
This software is useless. It cannot be register nor activated. Please call Microsoft directly if you do not believe me.

I called Microsoft about the comment that this software is prohibited to be sold on Amazon.com. I was told that Microsoft will not register nor activate any academic software sold on Amazon.com by any company. They said the academic qualifications are not checked (cannot be checked per Amazon regualtions) and is sold to anyone which is a violation of Microsoft agreemnts.

I am outraged that Amazon.com does alows this activity to continue since it is against their Policy.

Shame on Amazon.com

Prohibited Software
Prohibited Software
As per Amazon.com Policies, only full retail versions of software may be sold through Amazon.com. Additionally, please be aware that OEM, academic, promotional, beta, NFR, back-up, recopied, and freeware & shareware versions of software are prohibited.

Sellers cannot verify academic eligibility of customers since policies prohibit this and they are violating thier agreements with Microsoft. I reported this to Microsoft and they are investigating and possible impacts to customers purchasing this product. Please call Microsoft if you do not believe me.

Shame on Amazon.com - They are violating their own policies and sell directly to customers. Maybe their own policies do not apply to themselves.
