Get Vista Ultimate, Office Ultimate, Etc. for the low price of FREE

Hey, it's me Andy, not some spambot.

Anyhoo, some of you might be interested in a little something I ran into today...free Vista or Office or other MS stuff.

1- Read this

If you are a Windows Vista or Windows XP user and decide to join and participate in both programs, we will send you a free Microsoft product when you participate in the program. Limit one gift per person. This offer is non-transferable. This offer expires on 12/31/07, while supplies last, and is not redeemable for cash. Taxes, if any, are your sole responsibility. The current list of products to choose from are:

Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate (32-bit and 64-bit DVD)
Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007
Microsoft Money Plus Premium
Microsoft Student with Encarta Premium 2008
Microsoft Streets and Trips 2008

2- Participate in both of those things here:

http://wfp.microsoft.com/Welcome.aspx

I'm in for a copy of Vista...if I can find another spare computer laying around I'll probably get the latest Office package also. I say spare computer as I dont want the MS spyware on my used machines for 3 months...but turning on my spare laptop once a week to surf Google or something counts

. You get my drift? Just put another name/email addy on the next 'free gift' for being helpful sign up

Good luck

In any event, nice to see they produced.

Andy · 05-06-2008, 09:35 PM

Naaah, saving it, might need it in say...3 years. Check out craigslist, seems lots of people that got in on this deal are selling the disks for around $30-50 USD

Yes, miKr0z0ft sux, lol. But I DO have dvds of 32 and 64 bit Vista Ultimate

I loaded 32 bit and wasn't impressed on my laptop many moons ago and decided I wouldn't buy it.
I downloaded the 2 versions above a couple of months ago to try on my quadcore. I tried the 32bit for a day and then loaded the 64bit over that partition to overwrite it. It's a dual boot with xp btw.
I loaded teamspeak and LoMac and flew a few days with Bob and the gang. I wasn't impressed enough to use it full time. There are no 64 bit applications or games that I use written for it yet. It uses 900MB of ram idling, lol. It was nice to see all 4 GB that I have installed, I don't have Linux on here as the motherboard isn't linux friendly yet.
It is ok as MS stuff goes, but they got a long way to go, as usual.

Copies of the dvds can be made for inquiring minds.
