Zamboni Man Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Click on the "valuable information" on the right hand side. The answers for the questions are 2 and true. Sadly it doesn't say what size the flash drive is, but still a pretty cool deal. Click on Valuable Information on the right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I filled the damned thing out. But I gave them my cell number and they don't know that I'm no longer using their OSes. MUAHAHAHAH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjeff215 Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I've got three of the stupid things. Got 'em at an Exchange for Service Providers seminar a couple years ago. They're 16MB (or at least, they were). While in the seminar, I used my Macintosh laptop to make a 3-disk software RAID 5 volume with the USB keys, at it worked. Even the MS guys were impressed at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campy Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I wonder what info it will record and report back to Uncle Bill? 619887[/snapback] None. USB drives are passive (and erasable) storage devices analogous to floppies. Thanks for the heads up on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I refuse to give MS any presumption of innocence... 621480[/snapback] I may be naive, but would transmitting any type of data back to MS from something in a flash drive be illegal? I know data is transmitted to MS from the OS itself all the time but that's in the user agreement. I doubt MS would have much to gain vs. the amount it could lose from using a flash drive for this purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
