10:27 am, Thursday, March 2nd, 2006Just found out about this — you can get a free USB thumbdrive from Microsoft by correctly answering this little quiz on their site. Go here and click on the green image on the right side that says “Get Yours!” You need a Hotmail or MSN email address to log in. The answers to the quiz are: 2, true, true, true. You’ll probably have to use IE to get to the login page.
Anyway, according to rumor, the drive is 128 MB. Totally free, 6-8 weeks for shipping.

I don’t’ know man, sounds like some crazy Microsoft scam to me. But hey beefy volunteered to be the victim, so we’ll find out in like six weeks.

I should be getting mine too. It is no MS scam I’m sure.
What…is it going to connect to MS’s site once you plug it in, validate your copy of windows and if illegal contact microsoft with the unique ID on the thumbdrive which tells them who they sent it to and then the FBI knocks down your door?
