Small print says it is 16MB

Well, at least it is free.

So I suspect all of you received this e-mail... one one of the major freebie sites, the OP posted that even he/she got this e-mail, which implies that they didn't send out very many of these (or any).


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

OT: I did a while ago. The notebook optical mouse I am using right now is the Microsoft freebie for filling out a survey. I was fortunate enough to get one from the generous FT thread with the correct answers posted. :p
