Polska, if it wasn't such a long drive up to Canada, I would be there to give you a hug, (in a manly sort of way of course

)

Signed up, and am looking through everything now.
I was hoping they had a newer build of the Win7 RC, but there isn't that I can find.

I am praying I can get a Win 7 key from this once its out ><, otherwise I will stick with Vista. I was surprised to see such an offer myself, I was hoping for some other software, but a great list nonetheless.

Wth...it's asking for a Tax ID/Tax Exemption Certificate. I have no clue what my Tax ID is and have never had a so called "Tax Exemption Certificate". Do I even need this as a full-time college student?

Exemption cert is optional. Just leave it blank.

I'm having issues with this too. I thought leaving it blank would suffice, but it puts your order status into pending status, and says you need to fax/mail a copy of tax exemption. I didn't look into it much further as I too am a student and have a midterm I gotta take care of!

Anyone know of how to fix this?

Instructions

Tax Exempt Verification

If you entered a Tax ID claiming Tax Exempt status, you are required to send in a copy of your tax exempt certificate to complete your order.

To complete your order, please fax a copy of your tax exempt certificate along with your order confirmation to (661) 244-4993.

If you do not provide your tax exemption certificate within 30 days, your order will be cancelled. See https://om2.one.microsoft.com/opa/ht...aymentinfo.htm for more Information.

This is what I received with my email. You only have to worry about this part IF you entered a tax ID claiming exempt status. Other than that, it should take 24-48 hours to "process payment"

If this is a new subscription, once processing of your payment is completed, you will receive a second email confirmation. Within 48 hours of the processing of your payment, you will receive a third email with instructions for how to access your online benefits and additional program information.

So chances are, it's just pending because it's processing the "Payment".
That's what it looks like to me anyway.

I just left it blank.
They arn't going to charge you taxes on something that cost $0.
Mine went through instantly, and was able to look through all the programs.
