&lt;P&gt;As &lt;A class="" href="http://news.com.com/2100-1012_3-6140100.html?part=rss&amp;amp;tag=2547-1_3-0-5&amp;amp;subj=news"&gt;Ina Fried reports&lt;/A&gt;, Microsoft's &lt;A class="" href="http://www.windows-now.com/blogs/robert/archive/2006/11/27/get-vista-and-office-for-watching-webcasts-at-powertogether-dot-com.aspx"&gt;free Vista &amp;amp; Office giveaway&lt;/A&gt; at &lt;A href="http://www.powertogether.com/"&gt;PowerTogether.com&lt;/A&gt; is over. Apparently, 30,000 copies was the limit. And Microsoft &lt;A href="http://www.windows-now.com/blogs/robert/archive/2006/11/16/microsoft-rewards-vista-beta-testers-handsomely.aspx"&gt;outdid themselves this time&lt;/A&gt;. With the average retail price being $399 (Vista Biz @&amp;nbsp;$299 + Office Pro @ $499 / 2), Microsoft just gave away almost &lt;STRONG&gt;$12M&lt;/STRONG&gt; in software. 
&lt;P&gt;Now, THAT'S cool.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.windows-now.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=18058" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.windows-now.com/blogs/robert/archive/tags/Launch+2007/default.aspx">Launch 2007</category><category domain="http://www.windows-now.com/blogs/robert/archive/tags/Office+2007/default.aspx">Office 2007</category><category domain="http://www.windows-now.com/blogs/robert/archive/tags/Windows+Vista/default.aspx">Windows Vista</category></item></channel></rss>
