Just got the email:

Quote:
Thank you for your interest in the Mystery Solved Windows® licensing promotion. We've received your request for more information to help clarify Microsoft® Windows Desktop Licensing pre-loaded on the USB drive. Unfortunately, this Mystery Solved promotion was available in the U.S. only and while supplies last. Supply is depleted at this time, so we encourage you to please utilize the online alternative today.

Yep. Fucking Microsoft, there probably weren't any USB drives to begin with.

You know whats really crazy about this? There is this korean girl who works next to me and is having problems getting the load time on a certain cell phone to be within acceptable limits. I was searching on google to see if anyone else was having problems like she is. Only 3 links were returned from google and one of them was a blog about how the flash drives from MS were out of stock. So I posted this topic thinking it was like a month old. Then you all start posting about how you just got the email. Then I looked in my own inbox and sure enough I have an email from Microsoft.. CrazY!

It was some sort of ruse to get e-mails and info. Plain and simple, I suspected as much and put Microshaft to the test and they failed. That POS corporation is failing to deliver in all areas lately. I doubt very seriously if I'll buy Vista, even when and if it ever hits the market. I'm not liking what I'm seeing coming out of them lately. IE7 is a bit of an improvement over 6 though.
