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...

    • Web search has been one of those crap ware that I try to get rid of asap. It's annoying and slow. It was a cheap way for Microsoft to drive traffic to Bing.
    • All I can say is that think the USB G8 is better in many ways, and costs the same or slightly less. I wouldn't part with mine. It's even a big improvement over the G6 USB. (You can also use studio phones (up to 600 OHMs I think) with the G8, but I have to say that even relatively cheap 30-50 OHM phones sound absolutely great--far better than through most internal motherboard sound!) Considering the difference in these products I am surprised that Creative is still making the PCIe internal card versions. https://www.headphoneer.com/cr...ve-sound-blaster-g8-review/
    • I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)
    • I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!
