I chose get the DVD last night, saw how much it was for 3 copies then went back for the download. It didn't charge me.

Yea it doesnt charge you, Its strange that my key worked for both 32bit and 64 bit versions.

I went ahead and installed it on a seperate harddrive, didnt want to mess up my partitions.
I would throw up a mirror for it, but that falls under distribution (not legal)
Pretty nice, what do you guys think?

I guess I couldn't go back because I had signed up this morning but got that error page I mentioned before. When I tried to do it again this afternoon, I was automatically logged in when I went back to the site to see if it was working again. I should have cleared cookies to see if I could sign up under another Hotmail account. Oh well. I don't have my new DVD burner hooked up yet to burn the ISO anyway.

If you can find the 64bit drivers for your hardware, it should work. I have seen some people mention good increases in Windows 64bit performance, not sure if it's the same for games.

Yep. It's sitting right here in the shrinkwrap waiting for installation.

Now I have a reason for a DVD drive. I need bigger backup storage for my MP3's. I'm building a new computer so I thought now would be a good time to get one. Now if the rest of the friggen parts would get here I could build it.

What cooler are/did you get? do you need any reccomendations?

[Stryker412]

Stupid servers are overrun. I can't even DL the iso image.

now i feel better about paying for the dvd.

Anyone want Office 12 Beta? http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/default.mspx

Yea, they had the iso up for download 4hrs before they gave out keys to people, I had to edit my post 3 times from the different techniques that people were using to get keys..after it was out, smooth sailing for everyone except those who needed to download!
