This looks like a pretty good deal from Microsoft for getting a free copy of Vista Business (or Office 2007).
Seems all you have to do is listen to 3 Webcasts. It's for residents of the US only.

Before you enter your private info, try checking out this thread at Fatwallet on different opinions on such offer.

edit: Seems like some people are getting confirmed e-mails.

I've already rolled the dice on this one. I didn't have to submit any info that the could not get from the phone book except a hotmail address.
I read up on it and it seems legit but I could be wrong
I'll let you know how it goes.

I read about this in the 64-bit MS newsgroup or their Vista newsgroup and it seems like people are responding.

I know a Microsoft employee who has confirmed this is legitimate.

I viewed three 'casts but their status just shows now as 'Pending.' Is there another step to tell MS I have done my homework and want my door prize?

It can take 24 hours or more for the pending status to be changed to completed.

You guys did see the bit about your employer must be part of some microsoft program or something like that (I forget exactly), right?

No, your employer must not be from that Microsoft program to be eligible.

Oh, I must have misread. Well, I'll just wait until my school gets it next year anyways I guess.
