apowerr Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Story Microsoft's been keeping its record pretty clean of late, but we suppose it couldn't end the year without a parting shot meant to cheese off the ultra-private, Microsoft-eats-children types. The company's latest diabolical plan involves giving away free copies of Windows Vista Ultimate, Office Ultimate '07, Money Plus Premium, Encarta Premium or Streets and Trips -- scary, we know. All you need to do is fill out a few surveys now and then, and download a little app that lets Microsoft watch your every move for three months. If you can manage to be a good little pod person for that long, you get a free copy of whatever software title you selected in the mail. But really, can you put a price on dignity? Exactly, you can't, so sign us up! I got a special discount for Office Pro, so I'm not to mad about that purchase but... Why did I buy Vista?! Still, this is pretty low (in some ways) but Microsoft will be Microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forceman Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Pop into Mcdonalds and get a free copy of Vista with your 99p burger and get a free WGA hat for the kids, Whatever next. Vista's image is really bad and for good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
