they didn't say...
Microsoft did say they gave away or were about to give away 30.000 copies... what they said was they had an overwhelming response and that there had been 30,000 responses to their "free" offer. They could have given away 3 copies for all we know.

Good Luch Loverock... I hope you and vista are very haooy together!
