I e-mailed them about not doing the W-9 and they replied

Tom:

Thank you for your email. I?ll make a notation in your account that you would like to receive Vista only. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Have a great day!

Sincerely,

That made me happy, I thought not doing the W-9 was going to totally screw everything up.

There still hasn't been an answer from most of those who have gotten Vista as to whether they were doing both the Vista and Office offers. So has anyone gotten it who did both offers?

(Sorry for the nagging. Just anxious to get my Vista and wondering if it's only those who just did the Vista offer who are getting it now.)

Got my Vista, and I have only done the Vista offer.

I got mine!!! Atlanta, GA gotta wait a few days though for my parents to send it to my college

Hah down to Statesboro?

I'm no longer down there...don't have to go through that anxiety!

Glad ATL people have theirs...my roommate at home is supposed to be checking the mail for my copy :)

Still thinking about this Anytime Upgrade business....

Is the only difference between Home Premium and Biz no Media Center but has more biz stuff. Will it have movie maker and programs like that, or will I have to upgrade to the Ultimate edition.

EDIT: I found out it doesn't come with Movie Maker HD and DVD maker which sucks. Will I be able to download them separate.

People have been asking about Windows Anytime Upgrade in Business edition so heres a little bit of a sneak peek for those who haven't looked into it.

It then redirects you to this website

I haven't gone beyond here, so yeah.

Biz doesnt have media center but biz allows you to remote desktop into the computer its on and home premium doesnt.

Eh It doesnt matter to me. I am getting home rpemium for free from dell and business I just received. neither I paid for so it wont matter to me if I pay for the upgrade for one of the copies to ultimate edition.

lol back to XP, it was just a quick snap from VMware :) im still waiting on my version but i probably won't see anything till febuary cause its coming from states :)

I mainly took it due to all the question of how WAU works and that SS explains exactly how so it answers all questions :)

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
