but before all that happens lets see if it actually comes. |

I requested the drive - although I answered at least two of the questions of that little 'quiz' at the end wrong. (EDIT: I fond the answers on the page linked to in the first post.) Hey, in about 6 weeks or so, I should have a USB drive loaded with marketing materials. To do: 1. Delete all Micro$oft stuff from the drive, 2. Scratch off the Micro$oft logo (just kidding on this one  )

Ack, 32 megabytes is nothing, seriously, they have 5gig ones, but still, free si free, it would be nice to have one to store random things on it  By the time it gets to me "6-8 weeks" i would've forgotten i applied for one, we'll see.
