Microsoft is trying to woo consumers with a one-week discount of nearly 70 percent on its Office product in China, as it tries to win the battle against pirated software dealers.
The world's largest software maker said it will reduce the retail price of its Office Suite 2007 home and student edition from 699 to 199 yuan in China during next week's National Day holiday.
The promotion will finish at the end of the Golden Week and does not include Microsoft system software such as Windows XP or Windows Vista.
