I got my email. Same as the one posted. Though it could be a LONG time before i see anything...6-8 weeks??

6 - 8 AFTER RTM. Vista Business was RTM'ed in late November.

They're not talking about Vista's release day (January 30th) either, since Vista Business is already available. I bet we're getting our copies next week. One can only hope, right? =)

I got both vista and office email.. In the ofiice email it said I need to complete and mail/fax w9 form if I want to recieve the seconf gift.

If you are eligible for and have registered to receive both the Windows Vista Business offer and Microsoft Office Professional 2007 offer, you must complete a W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification) form. To make this easier, go to this online form and fax or mail the completed form using the information provided. This form must be completed, returned and documented before the second gift can be shipped. Taxes, if any, are the sole responsibility of the recipient.

If you qualify for both do you get Vista first or Office?

In the email they will give you a link to make a w9 form. Then you can fax/mail the form. You will get a pdf file after you complete the form. I used faxzero.com to fax the pdf file.

while I was viewing the pdf file, adobe reader 8 was trying to connect to socialsecurity.gov.. what was that all about?.. :unsure:

I got my email for Vista as well but not for office. I completed the requirements for both. Has anyone else completed both and only received confirmation for one?

Yeah. I only got an email for Office.

Edit:

I take that back. I got the Vista email less than 5 seconds after I submitted this post.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      Stop asking people that. It's a "No True Scotsman" argument in that you are attempting to discredit the opinions of a person by Attacking the Messenger. The reason that these are logical fallacies is the TRUTH is based on facts as supported by evidence. Nothing else. So, always debate the facts with evidence to reach the truth. Once you learn to do this, you'll be able to recognize when people are fearmongering and lying to you for their own selfish ends.

      It doesn't matter if you didn't directly hear it from person X or Y. Every one of your statements comes straight from the racist, skinhead, anti-immigrant, be afraid of everything, "they are all taking our jobs", etc. etc. mouthpieces. That's where Farag and Putin heard it from too...and used it against the UK. So, while you keep disavowing the people who publicly peddled that position, you keep proving over and over again that those lies influenced you into being tricked when the Brexit vote came around too. In fact, your final sentence makes it crystal clear that it was the racist/anti-immigrant lies you fell and voted for, since you stated that you didn't have an issue with the economic trade issues with the EU. Ahem. To be clear, all of these LIES are EONS old, mate. They are the same fearmongering lies peddled to the same ignorant, gullible cowards by the same charlatans, snake-oil salesmen, and would be demagogues who've been doing this since caveman Ugh lied about his slightly different neighbor in order to steal his land. And, finally, you answered your own previous question. The reason that the EU isn't clamoring to bring the UK back is that they have had enough of people who would rather shoot themselves in the foot than get over their "insecurity issues". It's the same reason the entire world is moving away from the USA as fast as it can...
