The correct link for the MS Home Use MOD Programme is:
https://sabs.sbl.r.mil.uk/
BUT IT WILL ONLY WORK FROM A WORKS PC (ie you need access to the MOD intranet, which most mil guys will have through Restricted machines such as DII, RAF Mail, BSA etc etc)
ISTR that the 's' at the end of the http is critical and where most people go wrong.
Several guys at work have used this over the last few months, but more recently, I understand the company sends you a link to a download site and a User Serial Number for the package. However, I haven't spoken to anyone who has actually gone through this process.
Software for Students is good for Photoshop etc, but the deal offered by sabs (software Box) is unbeatable unless you are paying for your internet by the MB!
It would be useful if anyone could confirm the current position.
Edited to Add that the following is available from home PCs and explains all about the Home Use Programme:
Microsoft Home Use Programme for MOD Employees PDF
However, you still have to be at an MOD machine to use the actual link. Remember that it is the
Home Use Programme that offers the best benefits,
not the Employee Purchase Programme.
