C:Amie Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 T-Shirt would be neat. I worked long and hard to get my bug reports in. A shirt saying "I survided MS Office" would be quite touching ;) On 2000 SP4 I was tester of the week and got a really neat 'self raising' calculator. A nice surprise as I didn't realsie they gave out gifts for betas... Seems to be expected by some people, perhaps you were on the beta for all the wrong reasons if you do. :no: As the mail said: *Gifts for Technical Beta Testers*- We appreciate all you have done to help us test our products. Gifts will be shipping to you by October. If a free copy of MSO03 should land on my door mat, or Outlook 2003, well, I doubt I'd complain ;) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C:Amie Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Tehe, neat Something tells me it didn't say "Office XP is a rather pointless update to Office 2000" :p :laugh: ;) Not a fan of Office XP, it was all rather gimicky. Office 2000 was the most comprehencive suite. With more individual programs in it. It's all good ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted October 7, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 7, 2003 Yeah, didn't like Office XP much after I tried it, I got a copy of Office 2000 Premium via my college, helped me a lot in my studies :) .... Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quanta Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 When I beta tested for CorelDRAW, they gave me the full retail software, a T-shirt, AND a pen. They was very nice of them to do that. P.S. The Microsoft Office team got USB keychains as their Ship-It awards. :) Hey, they created the software, they deserved it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunnyB Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 The free gifts won't be sent out until Q1 2004. There were a lot of beta testers. It takes a long time to open that many Cracker Jack boxes. :woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmondian Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 I reckon what's really funny is people thinking that they're going to get something cheap / nasty. Not sure about the: beta 2 -> |gold/RTM| beta testers but beta 1 -> |gold/RTM| will receive the full boxed pro version of Office 2003. (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
