This posting is directed to anyone using Office Standard 2007 MAE, or to
anyone using Office Standard 2003 MAE.

I recently learned that MS offers an Office Standard 2007 Military
Appreciation Edition (MAE), at a substantial discount over OS 2007 (The suite
was a recently advertised item at my local U.S. Navy Exchange.) As a vet, I
qualify for MEA. The MEA suite is a complete OS 2007 suite, however, I am
concerned about the EULA.
It prohibits the use of the suite for commercial, government, or non-profit
usages.

Aside from the personal joy that I receive from having genuine MS installed
on my home cpu, I also need to bring work home from the office, or I need to
initiate work related documents (commercial proposals, etc.) from home.

My questions are-
If I install MAE, will I encounter compatability issues with a corporate
licensed edition?
Will a home created document become corrupted at the office, or vice-versa?
Will the creation of a corporate document on my home PC, place my company
into a potentially illegal positon?

If this occurs, or if I open my company to litigation for violating the EULA
then the suite is not a bargain.

Any comments would be appreciated.
