NP Borg.. If you want to know any more about it, PM me and I will let you know. I can always pop over to your office with it one day if you want to see the stuff you get with it.

I've already signed-up and put in my order, should save loads on licensing. Now I wonder if it's worth looking into trying to become a Microsoft Certified Partner, or is that quite difficult to do?

It is not difficult. You need a product certification. I don't think you can do it with asp anymore but once you have a .net forum maybe. When you go to the partners site they have it outlined there.

To become a certified Partner, afaik you need to have at least 1 MCSE working in your company. I think the program costs like £900 for a year as well. You can find out more on the partner site www.microsoft.com/partner

I don't have an MCSE nor do I want to pay £900 per year, so I think I may have to forget about that one, but I will look through it anyway when I have 5 minutes spare.

Borg,
Have you checked out the Action Pack from MICROSOFT. You get almost £15000 worth of software for internal use and it only costs £199+VAT. You get 10 licenses for Office 2003 Pro.
I have subscribed to the action Pack for nearly 5 years now, and swear by it. You get a file with all the software on it.. Win2k3, Windows XP etc..
Have a look at this link

This is one of the best MS tips I've received in a long time. I signed up too. !!! The ActionPack plus costs $400 for us in the US and I'm holding off on that for now but with all those licenses included, it's a no brainer!!
I'm working out a deal with a gold certified partner which may save me the $$ so I'm waiting to see how that pans out first. 
Thanks for the tip!!!
