Subject: Fresh Start for Donated Computers - OS licenses
Microsoft has just launched a new program built specifically for K12
Institutions and I wanted to be the first to tell you about it. Like
many other schools, you've probably received donated PCs that were
delivered without the appropriate documentation and CDs for the original
Windows operating system. In order to help eliminate confusion about
whether those PCs have a legitimate operating system license we have
created the Fresh Start for Donated Computers program.
This program helps ensure donated computers are properly licensed-so
students and teachers can gain additional access to technology. This
program assumes that most PCs received as donations originally had an
OEM Windows license and therefore provides appropriate documentation and
media - at no cost to you - as a replacement for the originals that are
now missing.
In the next couple weeks you will see press announcements, mailings and
more the launch this new program. I encourage you to visit our website
to find out how you can take advantage of this program. Details can be
found at http://www.microsoft.com/education/?ID=FreshStart.
If you have questions about any Microsoft programs or products, feel
free to contact me, or my inside rep.
