Charlotte, NC here!

Today in the mail (USPS), I received Vista Business and Office 2007 Pro from the PowerTogether promo.

I did both offers and faxed in my W-9 the second day the fax could be accepted (after receiving the email about filling out the W-9).

Last name begins with "E".

Special thanks to Mark Brown, Microsoft, and Catalysis for a successful promotion! :D

I like how you decorated everything to make for a nice little screenshot :laugh:

I got my Office 2007 today. No fancy picture to show you since my digital camera has stopped working out of nowhere. It's the same as everyone else. Plain manila envelope with a cardboard case featuring the key and link.

I'm in Northern Kentucky right across the river from Cincinnati, Ohio. I'd say anyone in this region should get theirs today.

Can Vista being Installed and Activated, then order the 64bit version and when you receive it format your hard drive and reinstall the new vista 64 bit... :unsure:

Yes. However... if you've activated the 32-bit copy that counts towards your number of activations. Installing x64 must be a clean install, so it will take yet another activation. I think you have a limit of 10 before you have to get on the phone and talk to MS customer support.

Does Anybody have a link to the 2nd part of the office download?

There's a link somewhere earlier in the thread, check back a few pages. If you really need the business contact manager...

Am I correct in assuming the 64-bit is available only on DVD, and not downloadable....

is that a joke?

Smart Alec... not everyone knows what their CPU is capable of...

download CPU-Z and run it, it will tell you what your CPU supports on the main page, like SSE, SSE2, SSE3, EM64T, x64, etc.... if you see a "64" you have 64 bit capability

Does Anybody have a link to the 2nd part of the office download?

Taken from page 98 (this topic is getting a wee bit crowded, I know):

Here are the direct links to the files:

There is suppose to be two downloads but they forgot part 2 on the sleeve that they mailed out.

Thanks for the comment NightmarE D.

I wanted to make my pic just a little different than others posted.

The "Microsoft" blocks are from when I was a Technical Support Engineer at MS PSS-East in Charlotte, way back in 1993. They were given to me (and others) for customer compliments and for completing various training. I've seen TSE's with literally hundreds of them in their cubicle.

And my "little friends" are from watching MSDN webcast last year. They were very excited to see what the mailman brought today! :woot:

Also glad to see you got your gift too!

Killer 5th

    • For a guy who claims to hate Farage and the ignorant, gullible, rightwing racist skinheads sponsored by Putin that his lies represent, you sure are quoting them time and time and time again, mate. Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.
    • Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
