Register Opera for as Little as USD 1 a License

Opera introduces the Opera Higher Education Program

Oslo, Norway - Oct. 1, 2002

Opera Software today launched the Opera Higher Education Program, an initiative aimed at institutions of higher learning around the world. Through the program, schools can register multiple Opera browser licenses at a fraction of the regular price.

Thanks to its cross-platform availability and host of accessibility features, Opera is increasingly in demand as the browser of choice among students, professors, and staff at universities and colleges around the world.

"Teaming up with Opera results in increased productivity and accessibility as well as financial savings," says Mary Lambert, manager of strategic alliances. "Schools will also find Opera useful in terms of making a unique browser for their own specialized needs."

The Opera browser provides users with many customization possibilities. The Opera Composer lets universities and colleges build a personalized university browser with customized images and functions. Opera's kiosk mode is the most secure way to restrict access to the browser's system settings in computer labs and libraries.

Opera is available for free in an ad-supported version, but universities and colleges can register and enjoy the browser ad-free for as little as USD 1 per license compared to the USD 39 regular license price. Since its inception, Opera has offered students licenses for a specially discounted USD 20 price when they register the browser for their own personal use.

Opera will be at EDUCAUSE in Atlanta on Oct. 1-4, 2002. Visit CREN booth number 1819 to learn more about Opera and the Higher Education Program. More information is available at www.educause.edu/conference/e2002.
