Not true. According to the private MCSP website, the software licenses granted are for "internal-use" and we are free "to distribute the product within their organization to encourage evangelism and product recommendations." However, "MCSP product licenses are not intended resale, for employee personal use at home, or for installation at a customer site (customer product evaluations are available through the Microsoft Corporate Solutions Pilot program)." Not to endorse MS or anything....we all know MY opinion of them :) At 12:29 AM 9/28/99 , Kris Kennaway wrote: >On Mon, 27 Sep 1999, John Howie wrote: > > > BTW Common mistake: you do not necessarily get to use Microsoft > products for > > free just because you are an MCSP.
