Office 2008 Network Registration

Hi,
We run Office 2008 in a college but the first time every Mac user tries MS Office 2008, they have to register. This can be very slow and is prone to failure.
Does anyone know if there is a way of pre-registering the software for all users?
Cheers

Possibly not since that would defeat keeping track of how many copies have been issued or are in use under the current license. You might want to address this same question directly to Microsoft. Perhaps they can help.

Regards.
