Hi,
They did. If you were on the technical beta, you would already be aware of
this. Those with access to the beta versions via the public customer preview
program were not extended any special offers. There are some major
differences in the two programs. Incidentally, the technical beta testers
were not aware there was going to be any offer until the program ended, and
in fact had been specifically told many times during the beta that no offer
of the final product would be extended.
