The Big Easy Offer Returns for June 2010!

The Big Easy Offer is back for one month only! The promotion will run from June 1, 2010 through July 2, 2010.

What’s different about The Big Easy Offer 4.1?

The Big Easy Offer 4.1 has higher payout rates for the Windows Server family (up to 42%) – creating a great window of opportunity for your customers to upgrade their server platform before the end of extended support for Windows Server 2000 and the end of mainstream support for Windows Server 2003 on July 13, 2010.

Customers now have an even greater incentive to not only upgrade their server platform, but also earn higher subsidies by making qualifying purchases that include multiple product groups.
