Finally got mine too! Only wanted Windows Vista, don't need office, though kinda wish I had gotten office as well, I still use office 98 haha (Only gets used once every 6 months, at most).

Had a few bumps along the way with Vista, but nothing that didn't take a few seconds to fix. No games though...no Solitaire or nothing. (I know, bussiness don't need games lol). Still pretty good OS. Still suprised MS gave it out for free lol

You can still burn it to a CD, but it will just be files and not an ISO. Either way, you got a backup.

My neighbor actually has an MSDN subscription through his business and he is downoading me a copy of the Office 2007 Professional ISO. I'm assuming the key I just got in the mail will work with it.

I got my copy today but i will wait until i increase my ram to 1GB. I hope prices go down when vista comes out because DDR2 Ram is expensive right now. I will also order the 64 bit DVD from the website if the offer is good for us Power Together customers.

I will wait a while until I upgrade to Ultimate for MCE, I may need to find another HDTV tuner to replace my HDTV Wonder if ATI doesnt doesnt want to make 64 bit drivers for the tuner card.

I really wish they would provide you with an ISO image of Office rather than the executable file. It would be nice to burn this to CD.

Just extract the .exe file with WinRAR to it's own folder and then burn the contents of that folder complete with Autorun. :thumbsup:

I got my Vista Business today. If anyone wants it pm me for $ and via pay pal its yours!!! I already have Ultimate and don't need business.

Get a life!! I also received a copy from M.S. AND OWN EVERY WINDOW from 98 to VISTA Ultimate. I might pay you negative one cent for your copy lol.....

Got Office only here in Indianapolis. I only did Office as by the time I got to Vista it was sold out. I wish that I had managed to get Vista done. I already have Office 2007 from that "Ready for a new day" launch event. Now I have 2 copies of Office 2007.

It is interesting to note that is says, "Office 12 Eval" on the packing slip.

Umm you realize the games are on the CD, they just aren't installed by default right?

edit: And I'm waiting. I probably have a week or so because I didn't fax my W-9 in until Wednesday last week. I was too busy to go send a fax. Stupid law school. Now I have to wait for both Vista and Office.

PS Tersanyus I'd be happy to take the extra office off your hands :p

Ehh.... think I'll hold on to it! It will be useful for a 2nd PC.

I just wish I had been able to get both Vista and Office. It would have been nice to have one PC that has it's OS and Office installed free.

Just received my copy of Office today!! That's all I got. Don't need Vista. New computer won't be built until the end of the year.

BTW, I'm in Hutchinson, Kansas.

I have an MSDN account and have Vista Ultimate running on my laptop now. I am waiting on my Vista Business in the mail now. Someday soon I hope.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are there people who haven't received theirs yet? I just want to make sure I am not alone.

You are not alone! Are you supposed to recieve Vista and office, or just one of them? And where are you located?

I am supposed to receive both, I'm in Norther IL and have not received them yet.

    • Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

    • 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. 😂
