Neowin is reporting on a special offer from Microsoft via Connect of the chance to test Office 2010 on a laptop provided by Microsoft. As a bonus, when the six month term is up, you get a free copy of Office 2010. Pretty sweet, huh?
Unfortunately, as I was reading the details on the Connect side of things, I came across this:
Q: Is this open to people outside the U.S.?
A: No, this is a U.S.-based program right now. It may be rolled out to other markets at a later time.
There is a glimmer of hope, however giving their previous track record of restricting special offers to the U.S., it’s not likely to happen. Sometimes I think I should rent an apartment three hours to the south (just across the border in to Washington State) just so I can get in on these things….
