VS.NET 2003 upgrade so popular :)

[mutant]

I had no idea it could be so popular. No problem with that but because of it i will have to wait 4 weeks before i get my upgrade cause they need to back order thats what MSs representative told me over the phone. They should produce more

If you fork out the big bucks for an MSDN subscription, you can download it (been using it for over a week now).

Well considering that it costs special price of $29 for upgrade and MSDN universal is about $2500 i think ill choose upgrade for now

I only got VS .Net Pro in Jnauary! So are you saying there is an upgrade to this? And if so are there any big advantages?

 

[mutant]

I dont know what are the advantages. Thats why Im trying
And to my relief i found an online store that can ship it in 3 days instead of 4 weeks at MS .

False advertising!
Ok, as I said before at www.amazon.com they said they can ship it within 2-3 days. So I was waiting... waiting... they move the shipping date... 4-5 days... waiting...waiting... again... 6-7 days... again... wating... 15days ! again... waiting... and now over a month! That is ridicolous. And they still didnt change it! It still says "Usually ships in 2-3 days" on the product page. It looks like they want other people to waste their time too! I never thought that a store with that popularity and reputation would do that.

Ahh. It finally came!
Finally!
Long night of installing ahead of me

Amazon is noctorious for this and me or my fiancee wont use them because of it.

She needed last minute books for school, so she purchased the next day shipping (like $20 extra!!) from Amazon and after a week she was almost dropped from the class for not having the books yet (10% off her grade though).

Not once did they think to mention "its next day from when we decide to ship". The book said it shipped same to next day, it didnt say it was backordered. Also We had NO way to get ahold of Amazon. No phone numbers are given and its a 3 hour search to find their customer service, in which you still cant directly contact someone, but must apply for it!

I tried again later, I got a book 2 day shipping and it took 9 days to get to me. True 6 days after they shipped it (you can view shipping status), but I paid for 2 day, not 6 day. Apparently FedEx should refund money if they cant get 2 day shipping done in 2 days!

Never Amazon again.
