What else is odd is that the software refuses to install without a key, while you can usually install for 30 days on Office and Windows without a key if you don't activate by then. Sometimes I just never put in a key because I reformat so often.
Yeah, I noticed that it needed the key straight away, too. I wonder if it's because the installer is in .exe form rather than a burnable .iso? Will they be releasing it in .iso form, I wonder? And finally, I've still only got the one key. I expect the rest will be available in the evening, my time (GMT).

You won't regret it. Go for it my friend. And be sure to search out coupon codes. Ask about them here and also try googling for them, something like "technet coupon codes". You can get a 25% reduction or more if you're lucky.

If you find a really good code, please share it with us here.
