Microsoft Giving Away Free Windows 7 On October 16, 2010

It seems that Microsoft and Facebook integration goes much deeper than Bing search engine. Following their one day special "I'm a PC", where the company offered 50% off list price on all computers if you purchased Windows 7 Family Pack - the company is doing a "one up".

Not sure if this is for real but may be worth a try for anyone who can

Thanks Nigel... I have a TechNet sub, but a good deal if you can win one!

The round trip flight to San Diego would cost me more than going to local shop and buying it. "Bing and FB were NOT my idea!"

I bet you any money it's just another one of those numerous facebook scams make that scams on facebook
(just another reason why I deleted the whole ***

+2 Sledge!

Used FB for 2 weeks and then deleted the whole darn mess!

No guys, you only thought you deleted it, it's harder to get rid of than the worst trojan ever written

just go back to the site and try to log in on your deleted account - It may be gone, but maybe not

 

[SledgeDG]

I know it's really a PITA to get rid of...you need to request the delete and if you try to log on in the next 2 weeks that request is automatically canceled. And even if it finally says your account is deleted that's no guaranty that all your pics and whatever else you put there is deleted as well.
Thankfully I was paranoid enough not to put any personally identifiable Info or pics in my account, so I honestly don't care if they deleted it or not. I canceled the fake email accounts I used to create those fb accounts and now I couldn't log on even if I'd ever wanted to

[The Howling Wolves]

Yes, I did the special request thing. Said it would take 2 weeks....yeah right!
Don't care what they do with it as I am not going back even to look to see if they removed me.

Did anyone on the forum actually receive a free copy ?

 

[Layback Bear]

If it sound to good to be true, it isn't. If I could get a free Windows 7 off of Microsoft site with all the authentications from Microsoft I would download and burn a copy now.

It was only the first 100 people who went to the Microsoft Stores said "Windows 7 was my idea", furthermore anyone who comes here would already be running Windows 7 or would have upgraded already if they were inclined to. so I doubt that we will hear about anyone who did get it. I have to wonder if they even gave away all the copies that they had available.
