Free copy of Vista Utilmate RTM to Beta testers

Hi!

See this french news:

[url]http://www.silicon.fr/fr/silicon/news/2006/11/20/microsoft-offre-copies-de-vista[/url]

It is written that Beta testers will receive a free copy of Vista Ultimate
RTM if they report at least one bug.
Doing so, Microsoft wish to thank Beta testers.
The Beta testers will receive an email and will be able to download
the copy.
They will have one week to activate Vista.


Did anyone hear something about that?

Bonne soirée! Roger

Yes, this refers to people on the technical beta program, e.g. not people on
the CPP program or who used technet or msdn builds or whatever.

Re: Free copy of Vista Utilmate RTM to Beta testers

Who do we have to have reported bugs to? I always posted them on the technet
discussion group.

I had not read this far when I posted my question about reporting. Sorry!

1. It only applies to official beta testers.
2. You have to have used the Bug Reporting Tool.
