Nice one, Glenn.

Drat, if only I'd held off buying my subscription for 3 months... I did claim it back on expenses though.

Does the software/key set a time limit for the 'evaluation'?

There's quite a lot of info in that thread, but assuming that they aren't getting wise to it, and that it works the same way as a regular TechNet sub, once you've got a key it's valid in perpetuity, even if your subscription lapses, and each individual key is good for 10 activations.

If you take the offer up, it would be wise to request as many keys as you can up front and store them somewhere safe...

Thanks - I've signed up already

Looks like it may have expired. Oh well.

Looks like their key generator has melted under the strain! I've been trying to get a key for Project 2007 all day and it's not working.

I tried also and had no luck.

I thought it was too good to be true MS have revoked the subscriptions

[Rik]

Why am I not surprised.

I to came accross this and managed to download several System OS and several applications and Keys for a couple of days and wondered why I could not get back into it, so Microsoft have pulled the plug. Good job I struck whilst the iron was hot so to speak. javascript:void(0);

Unfortunately I wasn't quick enough!
