I'm in Raleigh as well and have recieved nothing yet.

Well, I was bummed out that I did not order a copy of Vista to go along with Office 2007, so I contacted the person in charge of MSDNAA at my school. He said he didn't know when they would be getting Vista. I got an email 10 mins ago from him saying that they now have Vista Business on DVD to download. I guess everything turned out well.

Only question I have is this: it doesn't say Academic version or anything. It says Vista Business. Does this mean I could upgrade to Ultimate using this copy?

Jealous of you all. I am waiting for my office and haven't heard of anyone getting it yet. At least I take laughs in that I have been using my vista license for over a month now.

There was a post here about someones boss receiving his package for the Office download at about the time Vista started appearing on peoples doorsteps.

I'll be interested to hear when those who submitted the W-9 for both offers start receiving their packages.

Thanks for the info Steve. We'll have to wait another week or so. No biggie. WoW! Its like Charlie getting his golden ticket. Crazy. Congrats to everyone and pretty cool seeing the replies from all over the US. Its unfortunate the Vista teams world wide couldn't have worked better together on this promotion to get this out to our boys in Europe and around the world.

    • 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.
    • The high cost of labor and operating within the US. Donald hasn't been able to figure that out--pathetic.
    • Opinion. All you did was blame Democrats for everything. You offered nothing but a hit piece to support your pro Trump, anti union right wing ideology.
