3. Microsoft Office 2016 Office 2016 is available to SLSC’s
Both Windows and Mac versions
Office 2016 interacts with Office 365: if you have a consumer license and log in with that MS account, it will “tick off” one consumer license.
You can skip this step, but it may nag your user for a login
ITSD has tested both versions, and you can get them now
KMS Servers updated

Adobe has offered enterprise-wide usage of Adobe DPS
$150,000/year to cover the campus
Includes the creation of unlimited apps, including students in the classroom
Used primarily on campuses for advancement, athletics, and alumni purposes, and is a revenue generator
Excellent for marketability of students as well

11. OSU Purchasing IT Update
April 27, 2016 is the third annual IT Vendor Expo
Changing format slightly: expanding the role of some vendors at the Expo
We have asked Microsoft and Adobe if they would like to have a dedicated room for 4 hours each the day of event
Their ask of us is to narrow down what products or services each provides that are of interest to us so they can provide the right person
Please send topics of interests to Jenny Culp, by Friday, Dec. 18

12. Staples now in eStores Staples has replaced OfficeMax in eStores:
This shouldn’t affect most IT purchases (no hardware/software), but it’s an important change worth mentioning
