This is sweet but odd all at the same time. I know of plenty of people who have done just as much as me if not more and yet they dont get anything. Yet here i am with a new MSDN subscription for this.

I will have to finish checking out all the new benefits and that i got soon.
 
Well done, that's quite an achievement! So we'll expect you to sort out the entire world's problems now, just kidding.
 
Isn't technet a mini-MSDN?
So why would anyone choose TechNet over it? Unless it's not the MSDN Premium subscription you get?
 
From what i have gathered TechNet is just a mini-MSDN. I choose the MSDN. I have the physical media on the way. I should have it in 4-6weeks.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I did put in a lot of work last year for M$. With the Vista, Office, Live Messenger, among other applications and doing all the online support for them. Let alone the fact i wasnt in the Vista testing. :unamused:

It is nice to be appreciated to be noticed by them for stuff like this. Just wonder why they dont notice others like CG who built EasyBCD which is a far greater accomplishment than anything i have done.
 
Naw, EasyBCD is just a program - they come and go.
Anyway, it's probably something to do with politics, or something.
You on the other hand, you visit every single forum and newsgroup to provide one-on-one support.. I stay here in the NST corner of the web :smile:

Whatever, I do this because I love it, and I love to help people out.

(LOL, when will you stop spelling it M$??? I guess you'll have to now :tongueout:)

Plus, there's always next year :smile: Maybe I'll get lucky on an even-numbered year or something.

(Maybe if they make a BCD MVP??)
