&gt; &gt;&gt; What is your understanding of this question...
&gt; &gt;&gt;
&gt; &gt;&gt; If I am on Microsoft's Software Assurance program, but allow this to
&gt; &gt;&gt; lapse, am I still licensed to continue using the then-existant product
&gt; &gt;&gt; version moving forward?  ...or does the license expire along with the
&gt; &gt;&gt; Software Assurance?
&gt; &gt;&gt;
&gt; &gt;&gt; Best Regards,
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; If you were running Windows 98, and Office 97 before you signed up for SA,
&gt; &gt; and you allow SA to lapse, then once it has lapsed, you HAVE to revert
&gt; &gt; back
&gt; &gt; to your original perpetually-licensed software.  If you've upgraded to
&gt; &gt; Windows XP and Office 2003, you have to downgrade back to 98 and Office
&gt; &gt; 97.
&gt; &gt; You can only use software under the SA agreement as long as you keep the
&gt; &gt; fees paid.
