Microsoft Select Price List


SYSTEM SOFTWARE

Microsoft products purchased through this program can be made by University of Hawaii Departments ONLY.

The LICENSE table below provides the price per license ONLY, which is the right to use the software program. The license fee DOES NOT include the installation CD or DVD. You MUST purchase at least (1) DVD or CD set to install the software (see the MEDIA table below). There is NO loan software for Windows Vista or Windows 7.

WARNING: The Windows OS license under this licensing program is the UPGRADE version ONLY, and does not cover the full Windows desktop operating system; it only provides an upgrade license for a qualifying underlying operating system license. If your department uses any Windows upgrade products to fully install Windows on new unlicensed PCs, your department may be in violation of the Micrsosoft License Agreement. If you would like additional information, please visit the Microsoft website at: http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/highlights/osbits.mspx.  

DOWNGRADING: The Windows 7 can either be downgraded backwards to either Windows Vista or Windows XP. ITS can not guarantee that the later OS can be installed on newer computers (missing drivers, compatibility, etc.). No refunds are permitted once the order has been placed with Microsoft.

WINDOWS on a MAC: The Windows OS licenses under this licensing program are allowed to be installed on a Mac with the use of Apple's Bootcamp or a 3rd party product such as Parallels, VMware, etc. The Home Basic & Home Premium (OEM or retail) is NOT a qualified OS to use on a Mac. Purchase of the "Windows 7 Pro License w/SA" (MSSWINLSA) under the UH licensing program is qualified to be installed on a Mac.

Microsoft Product Use Rights

If you need the full versions of the Windows Operating System, please check with the UH Bookstore or any retail store for the boxed product.

Software Assurance (SA):


SA is a "maintenance" program for the licenses that you purchase under this program. SA is an additional cost to the initial license purchase, but provides access to new versions of licensed software from the day of purchase until the end of our Microsoft Agreement: November 30, 2011. By purchasing the "Windows Pro License with SA" you will have the option to install either Windows 7 Pro or Enterprise on a Windows or Mac computer.
NOTE: Windows 7 "Enterprise" is equivalent to Windows 7 "Ultimate" (name for retail only)


WARNING: Windows 7 is NOT compatible with the currently supported version of McAfee VirusScan 8.5i.
