How long ago did you complete the training, and what software did your order? Did MS question your employment, or check with your employer?

the deal has been posted elsewhere, but only just recently. It would be a good sign if the OP has received the goods already.

Then I shall wait for him to recieve it or someone else on here to; I must say though, it sounds like a very nice deal -- i'd never pass up a free pen, as long as it's black ink.

I was skeptical

I did this about 2 weeks ago and i received the XP pro today. The pen and MS flight simulator I will be expecting any day now. They ask for Company name, but unlike other Microsoft Training programs these products are sold by non-traditional retailers like verizon wireless and AT&T cell phone stores. It took me about 30 minutes to go through the tutorials and answer questions, now they do not have a referal program, so I do not know how to get more then 1700 points, and Office XP pro is 2500 poins. XP pro is only 1500 points, and the version I received said it was a full version not for resale. It is legitimate.

The pen said....

The pen said it was a Cross Ion pen ( I already have one paid 20 dollars for it and it came with gel in in Black, Red, Blue, and Purple) I am not sure what color refills this comes with it, nice little pen to put on a key chain for the car.

Angry

I had 1400 pts, took the final quiz and earned 250 pts, but it never posted. Anyone have a similar issue? Anyone having really poor performance on the site?

I can't even get to the final quiz... it seemes to have disappeared.
I did this once before and now I am doing it again for my "brother", but it is impossible to get over 1500 pts without that final quiz
