Re: [Free] Vista Ultimate or Office directly from Microsoft.

Heard about that... know somebody doing it...

I think it'd be funny to load it on a spare machine with a fresh install... take the 3 months just slowly setting everything up until it's about ready for actual use

I'm still not sure it's worth it. Sure, it'd be nice to show them, firsthand, some of the things I find very annoying. Sure, it'd be nice if some of those things were fixed someday, but putting it on my main system, no way. There's just no way unless they were talking about paying actual money for such a thing. It'd have to be a substantial amount per month for at least however many hours/week of use.

Very interesting offer though. I'm almost tempted to do it, just to go through every little setting...

Oh, and wouldn't it be interesting to download lots from eTree or archive.org during those three months. Just to really piss off whoever's watching the traffic by downloading legal things via bt.
