They updated the main page saying that if you already started on with the webcasts, finish viewing the three and you will still receive your copy of Vista.

*Quoted from main page*

Already Registered? If you have already registered for the Vista Campaign, selected a gift and are eligible to receive the free gift, please continue to watch your webcasts to complete the requirements for your free Windows Vista Business.

Yea, looks like registration is closed, but if your already registered you can still get it by doing at least 3 webcasts.

I figured out why I cant goto the site now, some reason my router just started blocking "http://vsd.powertogether.com". I don't know why, but if I unplug my router and directly plug my modem into my PC, the site works fine, I upgraded my firmware just now to see if it would fix it but it didn't, also tried on 2 different computers. I also set the router to give my pc DMZ mode and that didn't fix it. Could anyone help? my router is a linksys WRT54G

wtf i had 2 on pending and was just about to do third one and then they all went to in progress guess the huge traffic is crippling the site.

if only to get a cheap upgrade to ultimate.

you can upgrade in the control panel i don't think it will be expensive but just have to see if it's in this business version or if its only home basic/premium that have this feature.

oh just looked on paul thurrotts website

Windows Anytime Upgrade

Those who acquire Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, or Business are eligible for an electronic upgrade to a higher-end Windows Vista product edition through a new Windows feature called Windows Anytime Upgrade. While this feature will not be enabled until January 2007, Microsoft tells me that the pricing will be a bit less expensive than buying a retail boxed copy of the Windows Vista Upgrade version in question.

Windows Vista Home Basic users will be able to use this feature to upgrade to Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate. Windows Vista Home Premium and Business customers can use Windows Anytime Upgrade to upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate. Because all Windows Vista product editions ship with the same bits on the install DVD, Windows Anytime Upgrade is basically just a way to unlock features and purchase a new Product Key.

    • This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!
    • This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.
    • illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
