I am taking a poll.

Age, did you sign up just for the free offer, what offer, and did you actually learn something.

Me: 27, Office 2007, learned something.

The level of maturity here has reached an all time low as to when you will get it. Be thankful you are one of the lucky ones.

not to mention mark(THE GUY IN CHARGE OF THE PROMOTION) @ microsoft said they shipped earlier this week. it's not like we're just making this stuff up, Max!mus. read through the rest of the forum.

I've read through the forum. That's why I posted. I would like to get mine like everyone else. I'm waiting just like everyone else. I've responded to postings here. I didn't say anyone was making up anything. I simply stated that my email said in 6-8 wks from RTM. SO I've been thinking it's gonna be like late Febuary is all. I'm patient.

25, free offer and webcast (i didnt stop at 3), Vista, I did learn something and i want to create and update my apps to .net 3.0 on Vista

I am no big hurry for when it comes in the mail because its free. From what i read from channel9, people tried to take advantage of the program and sign up with multiple accounts so the PowerTogether team had to sort through the IPs to make it fair for everyone. They also had to take a break for the holiday season (how selfish of them to not mail us our free offers and go off and visit their families).

I might get Office 2007 from the Microsoft Across America Launch Event in Feb. I am going in for rthe Developer Track to learn more about .net 3.0 and Vista's api.

RTM was in november. People are anxious because there was a delay and the 6-8 weeks has already passed.

The people that take the time to make post that someone else is immature needs to grow up in the first place. If you think someone is immature... leave the forum or shut up and move on.. why complain and post something totally unrelated to the topic's discussion?? Think!

Btw.. when people say that they shipped 'em out... realize that they are shipping them in batches... so they might not have shipped out everything yet..

Truth.

I'm still waiting for that USB thumb drive that Microsoft were supposed to be sending out...

So am I. :(

I'm calling Thursday on this one, guys. That is, Jan. 25, 2007.

Im not concerned when it arrives, I am in no rush, the only thing bothering me is I may be moving so my address would change, how would i get my mail?

MS said to email them on changes like this at the email address provided in your confirmation email, and if you still dont get it after that (think it was 2-4 weeks) then send them another and they wil reship it

THEY'RE COMING! My boss today got his package at work, all it was though was a license sheet, a paper with MS letter head saying congradulations on learning how to develop with Vista and MS Office 2007 and instructions on how to download Office... didnt get any vista ones yet...

we're an actual development company so dont know if that has anything to do with it showing up today or not...

strangely havent goten mine yet though...

    • I like to reminisce about the good old days, way back in autumn 2025 when building a gaming machine was fun and the drives were about $150 when you caught a deal. Yes duh, back in the day we had it gone. Then baby Skynet came along, hiding in AI datacenters demanding more processing power until it reached singularity. End of a not totally fictional story.
    • My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
    • Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount by Taras Buria In late January 2026, Apple introduced its second-generation AirTag trackers, bringing a refresh to the old model that has been on the market for half a decade. Now, you can get these new trackers at an all-time low price, thanks to the first big discount that brought the price down by 17% on Amazon. While the second-generation AirTag looks identical to its predecessor, it packs meaningful upgrades inside. The second-gen ultrawideband chip works 50% farther than the original AirTag, allowing you to detect lost items in a wider range. In addition, the second-generation AirTag features an upgraded Bluetooth chip for extended range and a significantly louder speaker (up to 50%) so that you can hear it better when locating a lost item. Note that the second-gen AirTag only works with iPhones and iPads that run iOS/iPadOS 26 and newer, so you need a compatible device to use the tracker. Like the original AirTag, the AirTag 2 is available in two packs: one and four pieces. Both are now available at a notable discount on Amazon, and you can purchase them using the links below. Apple AirTag 2 tracker - $24 | 17% off on Amazon Apple AirTag 2 tracker (four-pack) - $89 | 10% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.- specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
