interesting. i’ve gotten mine on its way… i’m wondering how big of a drive this is. 256mb probably? bigger maybe?
Excellent, shifter, I just ordered mine as well.
Now…to wait six to eight weeks for delivery. *twiddles thumbs*
Great tip, Marcus! (reps up)
I’ll bet it’s ~64MB. The newer ones are all much higher capacity, and so now to move the “old” memory stick stock, companies are selling them as PR tools (like this).
I ordered mine…though my husband got an odd message that they could not locate his personal information on his profile…so I opted to not do that…Microsoft does not need to know anymore about us than I am sure they already do!

Right 😉I’m actually thinking roughly 32mb because I’m sure it’s just a bunch of tips and whatnot, maybe a small flash video here and there, you don’t need more than 32mb to do that. Remember, don’t get your hopes up, these are free, and if they are more than 32mb, that’s just a plus in my opinion. 😉
(I’d rep+ but the stupid system won’t let me…I need to spread more around and there isn’t anyone to give it to. I really think that number should be lower…)
hey thank you for that info, just sent out for mine! I wouldnt be surprised if it’s just to see if people really own their copy of windows lol… but I dont have to worry! :woot: AND the price is right!
hello I tried to order one, filled out form, answered the questions, however, I live in Canada, seems only US residents are able?

Shifter, you live in AB? How’d you do it?
I had no issues….
I was able to choose my country (Canada). Perhaps it’s caused by your .net passport………….. have a US zip code?
no I do not have a US zip code but I did (finally) read the fine print and found out the offer (as stated) is only availabel in the US
