Dilatedpeoples28 Posted March 2, 2006 CID Share Posted March 2, 2006 As if the Vista Tech BETA invite wasn't enough, you can get a free USB drive from Microsoft now. http://www.microsoft.com//windowsxp...rp/default.mspx Click on the "Valuable Information" thing on the right hand side. Fill out the form and answer the questions correctly (2, T, T, T) and you'll get a USB drive from them. It doesnt say wut the size is, but it will take 6-8 weeks to ship.. BUT ITS FREE, cant beat it.

RTB Posted March 2, 2006 CID Share Posted March 2, 2006 Unknown size and the fact that you're required to fill out quite a bit of personal information make me say no to this 'free' USB drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmer Posted March 2, 2006 CID Share Posted March 2, 2006 I dont think it matters.. since what is coming on the drive is info about licencing.. they are just trying to see if it is worth the promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say it was a gig? I just said I want to know if it is a decent size one before I go buying another one, my 128mb is getting crapped out. Pshh MS even give out 512 sounds like a lot to me lol. I say they will give us a 128mb if even that, probably made 64mb ones just for us yay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
