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...

    • The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair
    • If he hasn't been able to figure that out, then why is he obsessed with tariffs? Because that's one of the most prominent tools to level the playing field when you have high cost of labor.
    • Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft released the newest preview update (C-release) under KB5095093. Alongside those, Microsoft also released new dynamic updates. For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery process in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, which are also called Safe OS updates. The dynamic updates also affect the Setup file binaries in the form of Setup updates. These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2. This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11. The company writes: "KB5095186: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, version 26H1: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.28000.2335. KB5102558: Setup Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to Windows setup binaries or any files that setup uses for feature updates in Windows 11, version 24H2 and Windows 11, version 25H2. KB5095615: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.26100.8737." Microsoft notes that both the Recovery and Setup updates will be downloaded and installed automatically via the Windows Update channel.
