So, as many of you know...there is a new level of Technet called Standard which is available for $199 for 1st year subscribers...versus the typical $349 that MS charges for Technet Professional.

If you are concerned about what comes with which version, this link is VERY SPECIFIC and lists every product you get with each. You will see that it's only a handful of "enterprise" versions of most things which are excluded;

If you do want the Professional subscription the promo code that is valid on it until end of July 2010 is TNWNF

It is a detailed list, but I don't see Office 2010 listed on either.

Hmmmm.....they must have published that list before Office 2010 came about. I can pretty much say with confidence that whatever version is listed for 2007 will be available for 2010 with either Standard or Professional.
