WindowsXP Pro from MS Retail site for 10$ - must work in retail

[Kipper]

Got one - thanks! I had 2300 points, they had some more training up...

You can check inventory by clicking in the quantity box, typing in an obscenely large number like 999 and then clicking elsewhere. The box automatically updates to the available quantity - or I guess something like that.

Yeah, I can usually get 80% of it right just by guessing and then eliminate the two wrong ones within 3 or 4 changes.

I hate to be the guy who says it but they really should consider enforcing a limit on how many copies of each title any individual account holder can order in the lifetime of their account. In a "not for resale" program it's kind of hard to justify why someone needs more than one or two copies of any of the titles for personal use. It only ends up bleeding off stock from everyone else who participates and might want in on the "good" titles (Windows XP, Office, etc..).

Maybe I'm just bitter about missing out on Office XP for the 3rd time in a row as a legit program user though...don't mind me. It's obvious people are not going to exercise self restraint when they can exploit the hell out of a program like this so easily by faking out accounts and/or mass buying the titles that can be ebayed for large profit. I'd hate to see it go away as a result of not having some effective enforcement or governance in place to stem abuse.

Argh...missed out on Office XP Pro again. :frown:

Ordered 2 copies of Office XP yesterday. When I go to the "Prize Shop" menu to the left of the page, and then click on "order status" it prompts me to update my profile. It says "Welcome ..... ...... from Circuit City" then has sections on all of my personal info. I update it all, and submit it, and try again, but it keeps going to this update inofo page. Anyone else having this problem?

WTF! taking the broadband crap...

"a customer asks: Im looking for a broadband network for my home. Do you have any suggestions?"

2 options:
Show her the usb adapter
ask her if she has a broadband connection

I choose option 1 b/c she just fvcking said it was for her broadband network & i got it wrong...these things are so fvcking stupid, good thing we get expensive software for cheap ...kind of makes up for it

OK, just wanted to make sure I'm not alone, as I AM a retail employee at Circuit City. I'm not trying to scam MS. I know better than that from a friend's past experience. By the way, to let you guys know...MS is tracking all of this software they send to us. If you look above the bar codes on the label, there is a unique serial number. My friend got busted for selling NFR Windows 2003 Server from a Microsoft Workshop. So, be careful if you plan on selling this stuff.

That person who just posted said the following and it's a blatant untruth:

I just have to call the "untruth-types" on this thread. It may be against your idea of 'fair-play' and mine too, but why lie?

"If you look above the bar codes on the label, there is a unique serial number"

MMMMM HMmmmm, sure there is

 

[sdcaboi22]

There is! I'm looking at my Windows XP now. Look above the 2 barcodes on the right. Theres a number. Mine are 99994-XXX-180-627 and 99994-XXX-180-628. They are all different, and trackable.
