the web worked for me too, and with the answers posted here, went thru the quiz in no time =)
hopefully i'll get my mouse

This is now DEAD, if you look at the bottom of the first quiz page then you'll see that they are out of meeses and won't be shipping any more, but you can still take the quiz if you have absolutely no life whatsover...
hmmm... maybe I need to refresh my browser but I saw no mention of that this evening.
...russ
alas... I think it is dead horse or mouse. The site flow quickly without need to refresh as before. And there is no mention at all of the mouse offering upon completion. AND as mentioned above (after a refresh) it states as follows:
*Sorry, the free mouse offer is no longer available, but you?re still welcome to take the quiz. If you passed the quiz during the mouse offer, please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery. Thanks to everyone that participated.
Suggest that thread title be amended to "DEAD" And congrats to those who went through all the hassle and didn't byte the cheese

Demand a refund.
It's only been a little over 4 weeks now and it cost us nothing, not even brain power. It's too early to start complaining.

Are you joking? this is the world wide web, the complaining starts immediately.

AMD t-shirt (and a few others)
Guiness bottle opener
Norton system works 2003
various coffee mugs and key chains
Solaris 9 (did anyone else ever get this?)

Bringing this thread up from the dead ...
I just want to say THANK YOU to the original poster of this thread. I took the survey when this was posted back in late-January. Today, when I got home, there were two packages on my doorstep. Each package contained a retail version of the notebook optical mouse from Microsoft. I'm not sure why I received two - I only processed the survey once.
In any regard, thanks again!!!!
