Microsoft Media Ordering Revised Too

The collegebuys.org website has received its first complete upgrade since its inception in late 1999.  It is now much easier to navigate, with clearer options for finding vendors offering the products or services you seek.  Also simplified is the Microsoft media ordering process for the 300 colleges and universities with Microsoft Campus Agreements sponsored or supported by FCCC.  Media shipping is now done via UPS with full tracking and options for quicker delivery.
