Where's final release for the Beta 2 Kit 2007 people??!!

I have still not received the final release of MS Office 2007 for Small
Business. I have emailed almost everybody in MS, I have called all over the
world, all to no avail. Has ANYONE who participated in the Beta 2 Kit 2007
ever received the final release? I tried the technical refresh, it didn't
work. I had to do the trial version just to keep working in the mean time.
Can anyone help with this?????

As I understand it, you now need to buy the final release from shops.
MS will not send you any software free of charge. How do you think Bill
gates is where he is today?

You did a great favor to be the guinea pig for Ms' new products.

Hope this helps.

When I first signed up/agreed to do the testing, it was clearly spelled out
that I, and I assume many others, would receive the final release of the
Office 2007 Systemfor our efforts/trouble/participation. This point was/is
crystal clear. I received all of my programs on disks, plus 5 other beta
programs to test as well. However, as of yet, nothing has been received, nor
am I getting any response to emails, etc. I have tried phone support, but was
referred to various MS webpages. Nada. Zip. Null.

No it was not. As a matter of fact, it was specifically stated that Microsoft would not be giving out copies of Office 2007. Where did you read this information?

WOW! I just got an email asking where I wanted the final release sent.
Somebody actually reads these posts at MS, and takes them seriously (when
warranted). So, to whom ever it was that took the time to direct my issue to
the right people/place, THANK YOU!
