Nice- thanks. I'll be patient, then.

:Q

I'm getting errors when I request keys, though.

My expiration date says the same thing. When I requested a key this morning it worked. Now I'm getting errors.

Comfirming links just become dead and before that I was getting the error "unable to validate your customer information".

There is no Windows 2000 quite disappointed! MS DOS, Windows 3.1 but no Windows 2000 booo

WOW.... I GOT IN!! Since I got the error I used the back button and used the saved sesion even though the links are not working. Then after trying diferent options I UNTICK the option about shipping address the same as billing address. Tried again an now I'm subscribed. The problem remain that it isn't giving keys at the moment.
Probably this will help members that got the error and still have the sesion open in the browser as "CU" and "Unheard". Good luck

Still no windows 2000 though. That makes no sense why have ms dos and windows 3.1 but no windows 2000 ?

 

[EKKC]

XP is really a more stable release of 2000 with the updated GUI

i guess you can argue, why no Windows 3.0 while 3.1 is there?
I would assume they just list the most stable version of Windows (2k/XP is release 5) in there?

 

[Crusty]

I can get through to the keys again

 

[JBT]

I can't get to my keys on my legit account because of all you damn free loaders!

 

[hclarkjr]

looks like they fixed it, i was able to get a key just now.

I got one for Vista, but now I'm trying Office 2007 and am having no luck. I'll try again in a bit.

Appears to be so. I logged in from a different PC and I had no technet account registered- wouldn't recognize the number they gave me.

Oh well.

 

[monkey333]

i wonder if the key i grabbed before being disabled will work..

I think if you completed the survey registration before the links were leaked your subscription will remain intact as the one I created has an expiration date in June of 2010. It's all the people who tried to create accounts only using the actual technet link that are being locked out, and from some reports people who registered on the very last day the survey was up. I think once you have your keys they are good forever.

By the time I found the survey link, it was dead.

I did get one Vista Ultimate x64 key & the ISO, though- maybe it'll work.

Yup, mine says June 2010 as well.

Well, it was pretty clearly too good to be true.

That said, I managed to get a whole bunch of product keys, so it wasn't bad for a bit of work.

possibly. I've been reading about it on a few different sites and seems like they are going to review how you created the account probably if you enrolled in the feedback program or not then make a decision.
