I dunno. But I;ve done 3 different tests already and I still have not gotten any points yet. I got the certificates for all three tests and I should have 600 points. Yet, it shows up to be 0... whats the deal? Anyone else have this problem?
 
Hmm, I placed an order for Office XP Pro yesterday afternoon and got a direct email from them cancelling my order because they say it's out of stock and listing it on the website was a mistake. BAH!
 
all good stuff goes fast, esspically xp,

keep ur points, keep adding more it'll show up again soon.

Happened to me too, but they never returned my points!:|
 
Same with me, I always thought I'd get more professional emails from microsoft.. They mentioned that the webpage screwed up on them.... Great.

Yeah, I got two emails....the first one, the guy sent it using the Xbox Retail Training template.....then he sent me another one that basically said, oops! But yep, no Office XP 🙁
 
7600 Points now ...
My Training Center page is BLANK

I wonder if my Points will disappear long before WindowsXP PRO appears
 
Same here. Ive been trying all day to see if my 2 XPs have shipped. As of yesterday it still said processing. From the parts of the site I can get to it looks like they are redoing the site.
 
Site seems to be working again - my XP ordered on the 30th has shipped and it looks like it did so on the 31st.

2300 points and nothing to get...sigh.

Man...jumped the gun too quickly. Got WinXP Pro last night. Should've saved the points and got Office XP Pro instead. Would rather have had that and run WinXP Home.

Who knew that being fast was a bad thing? :Q


your g/f 😉 (you asked for that) heres a :beer: though for being able to take a JOKE.
 
Windoze is available now.
Does anybody know how often office shows up?
And does it ever happen that both Windoze and office show up at the same time?

My advise: Redeem all your points on WinXP PRO now ...

I bought 3 copies.

By the way, Encarta Reference Library 2004 is available too

i dont think they are ever going to get everyone to do that, nor do they need to. they just wont ship out anything to those people who dont update the info.
They also made it so you can't even DO training without putting in that info.

You might want to consider getting office XP for students/teachers. You can order it from amazon, I forget what it costs, like $70 or $90 or something.
