Tomorrow is the big day -- the official launch of Office 2003. I'll be in New York City for the festivities.

You can order trial versions of the Office System 2003 applications for $7.95 each for the first kit and $4.95 for a second kit, including shipping and handling. At this price, each copy can be installed and activated on up to four computers and is valid for 30 days for most programs, 60 days for OneNote and Project. If you decide to buy the software after the 30-day trial period ends, you won't need to uninstall the trial, you can run setup from your retail copy and enter the product key when prompted.
