I too, frequent slickdeals.

Signed up under my buddy's name last night for server 2008

10/6/2008 12:50:22 PM

is server 2008 only x86_64?

10/6/2008 12:54:44 PM

the key they give activates both standard and enterprise on x86 and x64

for x64 either find a copy of the iso somewhere or download the trial, the dreamspark key will fully activate the trial

there is no NCSU option

plz to point to the free symantec antivirus...or id you has the latest one from ncsu send me a pm. my login isn't working for some reason

^^ you can click the "HERE" hyperlink that says if you don't see your school up there. Go through the process and you just email them a jpeg of your student card.

I used the partnered website's checkout process/cart, whichever that was.

10/6/2008 5:56:36 PM

ima gonna fax in my georgia tech id. my old ncsu one isn't readable anymore, and the newer ones they printed with the ATM card expired in 06.

what you never heard of photoshop?

i did this last year using my wife's student id (she was actually a grad student at the time) and i procrastinated on the emailing the jpeg but i still ended up getting download link emails about a week later. got sql server and VS 2008 pro out of it

my post had to be confusing

i do want the 64 bit version

this is good to know

10/6/2008 7:09:13 PM

Is it either/or 32/64

or can I activate 32 then install 64bit later and activate that instead?

10/6/2008 7:46:09 PM

moot point since I destroyed any remnant of activation nagging on this copy. Plus, it's enterprise...downloading x64 now
