The Big Easy Logo 

Looking to boost sales in the final month of its fiscal year, Microsoft has brought back The Big Easy program for the month of June. 

The Big Easy Offer 4.1 is a promotion paying partner subsidy funds to customers who purchase one or more qualifying Microsoft products. When you make a qualifying purchase from multiple product groups, they can increase the partner subsidy funds they earn to assist with deployment of the solution . The Big Easy Offer 4.1 is intended to encourage organizations to take a solution-oriented approach to their Microsoft software purchases.

The structure of the offer is largely the same as it was for 4.0 this year, 3.0 in 2009 and earlier versions of the promotion, which was designed to combine several partner subsidy promotions to make it easier for partners and customers to understand and use.

One thing that is new in the product list is the inclusion of Microsoft Office 2010 into the offer.

By using this calculator you can find how much would be your refund from Microsoft.
