Thanks for the tip Mick, awesome thing to do. It is such a pain reformatting and having to download all the up-dates, especially if you're on modem like me. I just ordered it!

I got mine, be prepared to WAIT. I think I ordered mine in late Jan, got it middle of March.

I understand also there is some sort of update/support cd for some flavor of Office, 97?

Hello everyone,
I just ordered one, they were sold out and said it would be 7-8 weeks. So as name said, "be prepared to WAIT".

Is it just me, or is USB taking over the world?

Got mine about a month ago. I do a lot of clean Windows installations & the CD saves a LOT of time...it includes SP1, Media Player 9, DirectX 9, not to mention all the security updates up to Feb 2004. There's also a 2nd CD which has a free 1 yr trial of eTrust EZ Armor antivirus & firewall

An Office Update CD is available for Office 2000 & Office XP.

Here's the Link

Currently the Update CDs are only available in the US. (Sorry 'bout that, to our friends in the UK & elsewhere.)
