Microsoft reaches limit on Vista, Office giveaway
C|Net | at | by Mike
It sounded like a scam: visit this Web site, watch a few videos and get a free copy of Windows Vista or Office 2007.
Actually, the PowerTogether.com site was a legitimate Microsoft-run site. Aimed at software developers and architects, the site offered free copies of both titles to those who watched at least three Web-based seminars on each of the new products.
Unfortunately, for those looking to score their free copy, Microsoft said that it has already received sign-ups from the 30,000 people it had hoped to register for the program. The site now says "sold out" when people come to register for the giveaway.
