Charlie Posted May 27, 2006 Posted May 27, 2006 "86 days a go there was a thing going on with Microsoft where if you answered the four questions right, you would get a free usb drive and here's the confirmation message: "Thank you for requesting the Mystery Solved USB drive loaded with valuable information. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery." Something's wrong with this...it did NOT come in and here's the email that I got 2 hours ago:" Oh well
arab_freak Posted May 27, 2006 Posted May 27, 2006 UGH, I remember making that thread. If it was US only, why did they make me choose a country? >=(
Guest Jordan Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 I have a lovely legal version of XP x64... I didn't buy it I was a beta tester so i got a legal serial code the easy way. MS are being really OTT with their "Genuine Advantage" crap.
christophicus Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 Yeah everytime i turn on the pc now ,it comes up!!!,its really annoying!!
Colin Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 I don't beleive how many people were actually pinning their hopes on getting one of these from Microsoft. It took like 2mins on my time to fill out anyway, so I weren't bothered if it turned up at all. Apparently the drives were only 16Mb and just had aload of advertisements on them. I went onto Aria's website today and ordered a 2Gb pendrive for like £25. The same pendrive is available on Ebuyers site for £28 if anyone is interested.
Ice9 Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 I havent recieved one of those emails.. Fingers crossed!
theguyfromspark Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 Hmmm.. i think someone posted in that thread that it was only open to US residents but no one believed him.
Charlie Posted June 1, 2006 Author Posted June 1, 2006 Hmmm.. i think someone posted in that thread that it was only open to US residents but no one believed him. We knew it was only for American's, but we were hoping that MS wouldn't notice we weren't
