What about software upgrades and new versions after I have purchased my notebook?

All notebooks under the notebook scheme come with Microsoft Office 2007.

For those who bought the notebooks, the license for use of the software provided by NYP, such as MS Office Suite, etc. is for three years and ownership is with NYP. Within these 3 years, you will be eligible for the upgrades.

However, when you withdraw or graduate from NYP, you have to remove all licensed software which NYP has provided for your use.
