    Default I'm a Windows 7 House Party Host!

    Just happened to be on late last night and got an email @ midnight saying the first few to respond would be selected. So I responded and filled out my stuff, then got an email saying I was selected!

    I need to host the party between Oct 22 and 29. I'm probably going to do it on the 25th (Sunday). Some perks of being a host are:

    Hosts will receive a special Signature Edition of Windows 7 Ultimate for their efforts. They will also get a Windows 7 Party Pack to share with their guests, based on one out of four themes: PhotoPalooza, Media Mania, Setting up with Ease, or Family Friendly Fun. Party packs will be delivered by October 10, 2009, and include the following items.

    All hosts will receive:
    One limited Signature Edition Windows 7 Ultimate
    One Deck of Playing Cards with Windows 7 Desktop Design
    One Puzzle with Windows 7 Desktop Design
    One Poster with Windows 7 Desktop Design
    Ten Tote Bags with Windows 7 Desktop Design for hosts and guests

    Also included in USA party packs:
    One package of streamers for decoration
    One package of balloons for decoration
    One table top centerpiece for decoration
    One package of Windows 7 napkins

    US residents will also be entered for a chance to win a $750 mini-notebook computer. A total of 64 winners will be notified once all the parties are over (after October 30, 2009).
    I'm especially excited to see this Signature Edition of Windows 7 Ultimate

    Anyone in the New England area (I'm in Central Mass, right next to Worcester) that wants to come PM me your email addy and I'll send you an invite

    Nice! I'm not really sure what goes on at the party, but I might be able to swing by. Sounds interesting to say the least, hehe. As of now, I don't have any plans for that day, but who knows if I will have to work then.

    ^ @ the mail that is hot, but I think you might already have it anyway.

    Anyone else in the Central MA area?

    Hey I live in Worcester! Not sure if I'll be able to go though...
    It's like JFK announcing the moon mission. He had no expertise in space travel, and no way of knowing if it would work. He just announced "we're going to the moon" and then they made it happen because everyone was on the same page and working towards the same goal. If he had said "well, let's get some people in space, and we'll see how far out we can get, and if I find someone to make a rocket strong enough, we could possibly approach the moon's orbit and maybe land" it wouldn't have happened.

    I applied, but haven't heard back at all. Maybe I have a chance, although hearing about what happened with you, I'm having my doubts.

    weird. I wonder if it's because I'm still using XP, or because I live in a small town. It is a college town though.
