Windows Vista™ provides you with a reliable, secure, and visually stimulating platform to build upon. Businesses depend on the ability to access and act upon information from a variety of sources. Windows Vista was designed from the ground up as the next generation platform for connectivity. Windows Vista also features a visually stunning interface. The new Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation gives you a powerful base from which you can build high fidelity applications.

Sign up for 3 web casts, participate, and they'll give you Vista Business for free.

Same goes for Office 2007:

I am going to try soon. You have to watch their videos and then you get free copies of the two software programs from MS.

It's worth a shot to me to get free copies of software from Microsoft. Office is quite expensive and Windows is catching up quickly.

Well now I am screwed. I thought this would be ongoing for a while... so I waited to register.

Now it looks like they've stopped the free gifts.... :(

Heck, I only wanted to get a legit Key. Oh well, not worth the time with their online junk without it.

Hello:
I signed up for the free Vista Business, napped through the 3 streamed seminars and received no confirmation of my disc. I emailed them about two weeks ago wondering about the freebie and was told that I did qualify and should be receiving my free Vista 6-8 weeks after public release. Lo and behold I got my full version Vista Business in the mail today. I am shocked and amazed Redmond came through. Now I have to decide which machine I am going to install it on. And for the record I have received no spam or junk mail related to this offer. Brad.

Taxes only have to be paid if you received both free programs. Brad.
