Thanks for the info Saucy.

The 'while supplies last' is a bit of curious marketing gimmick, since
according to the FAQ the product key is already built in. So I suppose
they've just decided on a fixed number of downloads or time period for which
it's available (??).

From the FAQ ....

Q: Do I need a product key?
A: No, Windows 7 Enterprise 90-Day Trial has a product key built in, so
there is no need to enter one.
