MICROSOFT HASN’T DECIDED THE MEANS OF STRUGGLE YET
Support A1+!The program packets of Microsoft are sold by the European prices in Armenia. For instance, one and the same program costs 399$ in America and 399€ in Europe.
The non-licensed packets of Microsoft are especially common in Armenia. Grigor Barseghyan, head of the Microsoft Armenian office doesn’t know for sure how they can combat against this phenomenon. He merely advises to buy the packets while purchasing computers. Otherwise, the price of the packet doubles.
The RA Government signed a contract with Microsoft a week ago under which all the educational packets of Microsoft will be used in the educational system of Armenia. Both students and professors will have a chance to train free of charge. The company will share its experience and knowledge to contribute to the development of informative technologies.
Mr. Barseghyan informed A1+ that the Armenian variant of “Office 2007” will be ready in autumn. Microsoft Word, Word XP have already been translated into Armenian which will eliminate the language barrier and make computers available for the users.
