    Microsoft is giving away USB drives filled with Microsoft documents related to business licensing for free. Simply visit this page and click on the USB drive image. Fill out the details and complete the quiz:

    Question 1: 2

    Question 2: True

    Question 3: True

    Question 4: True

    Then a brisk 6-8 weeks later you'll get your free USB stick.

    BTW... I Prolly wouldn't recommend doing this whole quiz / test thingy if you're using an illegal copy of windows. Do it from work or something if you have any doubts or issue

    I just did mine and put my work address since that is what it was asking for. It's funny that M$ has spent more money on me than I've ever spent on them. Yay for Open Office.

    Except the fact that they use the information you've given them to benefit their business and probably made a crap load more money off you than they've given you.

    Sad, I know.

    Well, that's a win/win situation. They make a profit, I get a USB drive. I don't hear anybody complaining.

    Yes, indirectly BYU has spent some of my tuition on M$ software licensing agreements, but as a CS student they give away their software for free, so I haven't purchased any of it. I've built my own computers so they haven't gotten any Windows tax. I use open office and can't think of any real money I've spent on M$ stuff. You claim they get money off my info, but I gave them a junk email address that I never check and my work shipping info which they already have.

    However, I've gotten pizza off M$ a few times a semester for the past couple of years. Free Windows (LEGAL) for playing games through CS student benefits. A free USB stick. Pens, paper and other M$ paraphanelia.

    So as far as I can see they've spent a bunch of money trying to recruit me despite my lack of interest, and I haven't directly given them a cent, nor asked anybody to do so on my behalf.

    Okay, you've got me there. I forgot about all the free software for CS students that MS gives away...
