What version of Adobe Acrobat are we talking about? Microsoft® Office Professional 2003 with Adobe Acrobat +Training
Just like I said, what version of Adobe Acrobat is Dell talking about on this deal.
Microsoft® Office Professional 2003 with Adobe Acrobat +Training.
It's only like $40 more then just Office Pro, while a Retail copy of Acrobat 6.0 Standard is $299. Acrobat Reader is free so why would this cost more if it were reader (training I guess?)... so whats the deal?

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to treat you like an idiot. I've just been out a bit too long tonight. I don't have any version of Microsoft Office so I can't tell you which version the package comes with. The latest version of Adobe Acrobat is 6.0 so I'd be inclined to guess that's what you're getting. Sorry if I'm confusing you.

Your not confusing me.
There are 4 versions of Adobe Acrobat available now that I know of.
Acrobat 6.0 Reader - Free
Acrobat 6.0 Essentials - Corporate version only, minimum 1000 Users
Acrobat 6.0 Standard - $299
Acrobat 6.0 Professional - $449
Unless Dell is somehow supplying customers with Acrobat Essentials I can only guess that this is just Acrobat Reader. I suppose I should just call Dell.

Not to be rude, but I'm not an idiot.
I'd like to know which version of Acrobat it is. I have trouble believing its Acrobat Standard because that package retails for $299 and is sold from Dell for ~$270. This deal is only $40 more expensive then Office Pro. by itself, so it seams unlikely that this includes the full version of Acrobat.

I've ordered it so I can tell you with absolute certainty in a week, but this is what Dell SMB said. I don't know how they do it... It actually bothers me that they get it at this price, companies seem out to screw DIYers with there b2b deals.

OK, I just have to double check... this option is ~$40 more then Office
2003
Pro, but includes training and Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard (a $299
program).
Is this accurate?
