E-commerce at Microsoft (UK)

Dear Bill I live in London (near England) and would like to buy Microsoft Money and Microsoft Office. My preferred method of obtaining the goods would be to download these programs from your Web site and pay using a credit card. A small discount to reflect the reduced administration costs, packaging and margin taken by the retailer would be nice but not essential. However, when I attempt to buy these Microsoft products in the UK, I am redirected to third party Web sites (Amazon, Dabs, PC World etc) or I can delay the purchasing decision by downloading a 60 day trial version....
