I have ordered several times from them for Three Trees. It is a GREAT deal for a fledgling charity. Please don't try to scam them 🙂 They require you to provide a copy of your 501(c)(3) certificatre from the IRS for your first order.

good deal, excludes most of us and getting the npo status is a lot more tricky

MS has the same deal for $0

You need to submit paperwork but they do come through. Two years ago, I set up a Child care org with Small Business Server and 5 workstations with NT & MS Office.

MS seemed to do this paperwork twice a year and it took 3 months but they came through.
