As usual, anybody outside the American continent is out of luck... When will
Americans learn there's a whole planet out there? Damn supercilious
so-and-sos...

OK so it doesn't mention the UK or other countries... but put it this way,
an insider has just said "as long as you understand the languages available,
you should be alright" and gave a little wink.

I'm from the UK, so I've applied... and if I'm lucky, I'll prove this one as
well... seeing as a lot of "US only offers" can be loopholed ;o)

Signed up (even though I'm in the UK), then noticed that I needn't have
bothered as I have a TechNet Plus subscription (along with MSDN Universal,
about the only good points about the company I work for ;) ).

Does this mean that the April shipment of Technet will actually have some up
to date Betas? The March shipment didn't have an update to Vista which
leaves Technet subscribers with 5270. No sign of Office 2007 beta either.

Office 2007 will hit TechNet Plus (only I think) as soon as it hits Beta
2... which will also be public for download.
I got 5231 again in March TechNet Plus... but we'll be getting it as soon as
it hits Beta 2... but more than likely May-time.
Exchange "12" was in March TechNet Plus by the way... so that's all of them
covered I think?

Odd, just looking at my discs now, I got 5270 in Feb, but nothing to do with
Vista in March. Also got Exchange 12 in March. With any luck 5308 will hit
Technet in April just as the CPP is released. ;)

I think I got 5270 in February, but I have all of my licence keys pinned up
on the notice board in my server room... and it's not there which leads me
to believe that I don't have it. Hmm... I'll have another check.. but I'm
sure I have it...
