Microsoft Removing Outlook for Student and Teacher Edition



I have a lot of co-workers that are back in school, or they
have kids in school and accordingly qualify for the student and teacher edition
of Office, Thus far every edition of office has come bundled with outlook. The
word on the street is that Microsoft is pulling Outlook out and adding in
OneNote, both are products I own and use. Additionally they are adding Groove
to the professional version in some format that I hope will work for those of
us not on enterprise level systems as I really like Groove.

But I will be honest it pisses me off that they are removing Outlook from the
student and teacher edition. I will say this, my kids will be using Office 2006
till it becomes unusable the actions of Microsoft on this is wrong.
