:) Got my shipping confirmation this am. Ordered on 5/18.

Do you think it's worth upgrading from Home Ed or should I just install it and supply the CD along with the next system I sell?

Can we just remove the cardboard sheath and stick it in a new jewelcase?
Is the CD marked the same?

Man Oh Man...

It showed two shipped, one temp charge on the credit card for 48.74, a scheduled UPS ship date 6/24 for a couple days up until now and now it shows a rescheduled ship date of 6/25 and the temp charge dissappeared and no regular charge has yet appeared.

Update: About 24 hours after the temp charge dissappeared, the actual charge posted to my credit card account. And UPS now shows 6/25 delivery date again.

No because if you remove the cardboard sheath, Bill Gates will personally come to your house and make you wear one of his velvet shirts, from his personal "Mel Torme" collection. (Comdex Chicago)

Im sure you could, I havent opened mine yet to see if its on the CD and it's already packed up as Im moving next weekend.
If you want to do that so you could sell it then Id say legally no as it's fraud.
Since these have unique cd keys Id say chances are your taking a risk selling these.

Question to the people who got it:
Do you need activate it, or this is no WPA version?
If it asks for activation, how many days 30 or 60?
TIA

Has anyone successfully contacted sunriseid.com with respect to their order? I placed my order on May 16 and it seems that people who placed their order after mine have already received their items. I received the initial confirmation e-mail and never got a cancellation e-mail, however, I haven't received the package yet? Anyone else in the same boat?

I ordered on the 19th. Got an email a week later wanting confirmation on info I had already included??? I called their bluff and confirmed my company name and hotmail address. Nothing for several weeks. I had kinda given up, then Saturday morning, June 22, I get the shipping confirmation. Supposed to get here on the 28th. Go figure :confused:

When you look at the shipping info from UPS, they (sunrise) goofed big time, they show you the BILLING date, not the actual SHIP date, at least this is what UPS tells me, My company was supposed to get it yesterday, but I called and they said it will take 2 more days, funny thing, dude said I was the 5th person to ask what the deal was. :confused:

This is a blunder on the part of the folks that sent out the package.
