This is a discussion about Those who've ordered the Preview Program (esp. in the UK) in the Windows Hardware category; Hello folks: I ordered my copy of the preview from Microsoft UK's website and although it showed a confirmation page, I haven't received the usual Order Complete email from them. Is this normal? Regards, Russell.

Has anyone in the UK had a weekly email and/or email reply to their order of the preview program
I wondered exactly the same thing so I e-mailed Microsoft UK and thus is the response I got from them:

Same here really, i signed up 4 the UK preview a couple of weeks back. Had nothing at all yet from microsoft. As it could be a few more weeks b4 we get our cds, i'm downloading a copy now. Only 12 hours 2 go *sighs* This is the 3rd copy now i've tried to get. I downloaded 90% of 2495 b4 the site was pulled, then 20% of RC1. Now i'm getting a rather old 2464 version. I'm stuck on a humble 56k modem here. We can't get ADSL or CABLE in this part of Wales
thanks for the info guys so much for the promised email ah well just have to wait 56k here also
