I'd like to know this too. Do you get the code at registration time, or do you actually have to be there all day for this?

Usuaully not at the beginning. It'll be during intermission or at the end.
 
Ok, so :cookie: for anyone who has figured out WTF "Office Groove 2007" is and will share it with the rest of us.
 
When do you get the code? For indianapolis their event is from 1-5? How long does one need to stay?
 
Crap, I signed up for this a month ago and fully expected to get Vista instead of Office 07 ... XP was given out at similar launches when MS rolled that out at their events, so I was very interested in attending a show. Now it looks like I lost at least one free Vista license ... holding out for the Vista offer for watching the webinars.

Ditto, had I known about this I would have gone after the Vista license instead of Office for the webinars.
 
in for it..but are we just going to sit there and have them talk or are we going to have to speak with people there about anything or interact in any way? everytime ive been to something like this we never do anything and get the promotional product free w/o having to do a thing but sit there.
 
Just signed up for Louisville, KY. I thought I was signing up for a 1-5 deal, but it stuck me in an 8-12 class. I figure I'll use Office 2007 for a few years, might as well get it for free.
 
This does NOT look like something for average joes. It's pretty clear to me that they want developers and other IT professionals to sign up. Also, they have a disclaimer about governmental employees only using it for evaluation purposes due to ethics rules.

I'd have to fake information on their registration form and then sit through almost an entire day of lectures and break-out sessions (the pin is given out at the end of the day). It doesn't sound worth it to me, but it sounds like a sweet deal if you're in the industry.

It's not entire days. You can sign up for individual 4-hour blocks. I'm not missing something and have to sign up for an entire day to get my free Office Pro do I?

I guess I'm sort of in the industry, though. I'm an MCP, and although low on the food chain, it's something, right?
