Staff members at Sheffield Hallam University are eligible to purchase heavily discounted Microsoft software for use on their own laptop or PC. This means that the latest Pro versions of Windows 7 and 8 are available for only £7.80 pounds each, as are the latest Pro versions of Office for Windows and Mac.
You can purchase the software from the online store. Please make sure that you register for a new account the first time you try to access the store.
Free copies of Microsoft software development tools are also available for staff and students through the Dreamspark section of the store.
