    Microsoft said yesterday that it has rolled out a new combined offering that combines its Office software and its OneCare support program, under the name Microsoft Equipt. According to Microsoft, the new software offers both its suite of productivity software, along with anti-malware and support tools via a yearly subscription. The new package will initially be available through electronics retailer Circuit City, and will be priced at $69.99 for a one-year subscription for up to three computers. The offering is based on Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007, and provides access to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote, the OneCare security and support offering, as well as connections into the online Windows Live services.
