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.... :(

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.
