Microsoft Office for 300 rubles. How is a company corporate benefit
Who lives on Habré will probably remember the recent discussion about the price of “Office” which developed in the comments to the topic “screenshots of the Office 2010 Technical Preview” (I can’t find the link, the author will understand olegafx ). It said that the minimum price for MS Office 2007 for an ordinary person in the Russian Federation is 1,500 rubles. Today, one friend told me that in his company you can get an office for 300 rubles. We’ll say such a corporate benefit from a company as a discount on relatives' medical insurance, a discount on bank loans, compensation for cellular communications, etc.

От себя: Если будет такая же ситуация с Windows 7, то попрошу друга "завернуть" и мне. :-)
I asked him to tell more about this. I publish without the name of the company, because you never know what :-)
Here is what they write on his intranet:
