Hi John, I got some of the same things - my goal was really to get a copy of VS 2008 in case I ever wanted to develop in .Net. I know I'll never use the Server 2008 software. SQL Server 2008 - I'm just now planning to move to SQL Server 2005! I also got a copy of Vista Ultimate w/SP1. Wasn't expecting that - but I'll install it eventually. This also came with Windows Live Services, and a 90 day trial of Windows Live OneCare. I probably won't use these. This is the third launch event I've been to. This time I showed up about noon. Gave my registration bar code to the gal at the desk. Asked her when the software was available to pick up and she gave it to me right then. Then I went downstairs to get a lunch - they were giving away insulated lunch cooler bags (MS branded of course) which could hold two lunches and are actually pretty nice. Then I went home and back to work. No sleepy seminars this time.

I got released 2008 Visual Studio as well as released Windows Enterprise 2008 (x32 and x64). The SQL Server is not released however with a February CTP available (which I am downloading) in x32 and x64. So has anyone installed this and using it for real? Also does anyone have any knowledge about how this stuff will fit into the Action Pack? At this time SQL Server 2005 and Windows 2003 is the available there. John W.
