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..

19.5, Vista, learned something but I will watch more webcasts as time permits.

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...

    • Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
    • "This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time" ... Lol.
    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
