Thank you for your interest in the Mystery Solved Windows® licensing promotion. We've received your request for more information to help clarify Microsoft® Windows Desktop Licensing pre-loaded on the USB drive. Unfortunately, this Mystery Solved promotion was available in the U.S. only and while supplies last. Supply is depleted at this time, so we encourage you to please utilize the online alternative today.

Simply download* the Windows Desktop Licensing reference files directly at:

www.microsoft.com/mysterysolved/corp

To help simplify Windows Desktop Licensing, keep these points in mind:


There are two legal ways to acquire a full Windows Desktop license: through your hardware vendor (OEM/System Builder) or Full Packaged Product.

Volume licensing covers Windows Desktop operating system upgrades only.

OEM operating system licenses live and die with each PC–they are not transferable.

Again, thank you for your interest in Mystery Solved and for helping us spread the word about proper Windows licensing.

Sincerely,
Microsoft Corporation

Everyone, including non members, i have added a poll to our front page located at www.x64bit.net regarding who got theirs. I would be interested in seeing on a percentage how many were given out. Please take the poll

[The WinWizard]

Nothing, i received the same email as everyone else

[Linoman]

Thank you Microsoft for nothing. I wonder if ANYONE got theirs?

[ACiD BuRN]

I didn't even get the message that everyone else did . So lemme just tick on the side "Why don't trust MS"...

[Nvyseal]

Well i think we can officially call this a scam, what do you all think?

[Linoman]

If it sounds like a scam, looks like a scam then it most proberly is a scam.
