¿Se acuerdan que hace tiempo pusimos un post llamado Microsoft te regala un pendrive? Bueno, resulta que si no vives en EE.UU., eso no se materializará. Varios lectores no escribieron citando el siguiente email de parte de Microsoft:

Thank you for your interest in the Mystery Solved Windows® licensing promotion. We’ve received your request for more information to help clarify Microsoft® Windows Desktop Licensing pre-loaded on the USB drive. Unfortunately, this Mystery Solved promotion was available in the U.S. only and while supplies last.

Tal como resume NaCHo (uno de los lectores que escribio):

Nada de pendrives para nosotros los latinos. =(

Asi que si estabas aguantandote la respiración esperando que llegara, ahora puedes respirar tranquilo. Si quieres ver el email completo, continua leyendo.

Thank you for your interest in the Mystery Solved Windows® licensing promotion. We’ve received your request for more information to help clarify Microsoft® Windows Desktop Licensing pre-loaded on the USB drive. Unfortunately, this Mystery Solved promotion was available in the U.S. only and while supplies last.

Please utilize the online alternative today, by simply downloading* the Windows Desktop Licensing reference files directly at:

www.microsoft.com/mysterysolved/corp

To help simplify Windows Desktop Licensing, keep these points in mind:

1.There are two legal ways to acquire a full Windows Desktop license: through your hardware vendor (OEM/System Builder) or Full Packaged Product.

2.Volume licensing covers Windows Desktop operating system upgrades only.

3.OEM operating system licenses live and die with each PC–they are not transferable.

Again, thank you for your interest in Mystery Solved and for helping us spread the word about proper Windows licensing.

Sincerely,

Microsoft Corporation
