How to buy SharePoint

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is part of Microsoft Office 2007 and provides additional components on top of Windows SharePoint Services (WSS). WSS is provided as a free download from Microsoft for Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 or later and is added to the Microsoft .NET Framework. So, the chances are, you already have access to SharePoint but you may not be making best use of it. You will need to add user licenses (CALs) according to what exactly you want to do, like web page development, enterprise search and so on, but you could already be well on the way to implementing new collaborative working practises in your business.
