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:

And the MD5s for reference:

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

    • 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.
