canute24 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 I don't know where do you get that exactly? Can you give me instructions on that? And another thing is do they actually deliver it or just take our address. Usually free stuff don't reach at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1eD 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 It's a download. Register (but don't enter unless you want to) for the imagine cup. Then after approval go into the Spoke Premium section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjrn 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Premium Membership is available to students only. Upon completing Premium registration, you will be asked to submit proof of student status via fax or email. Once we verify that you are a student, you will pay a onetime Premium Membership fee of just $25 (US). Your Premium Membership will last as long as you are a student.How is this free?

odomike 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 I dont even know how to go about ordering for the free Visual Studio.Net. or am i supposed to download it? And from where? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1eD 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 The Imagine Cup is run by MS. As it says (or said) on their website, membership is free. My friend got it after emailing the spoke, they will then make your membership free. It was for me despite what they say on their website. And it worked for a friend (another Xisto user).I repeat it is a download. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bjrn 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 I understand how to register. After you register you're just a "normal" member, being a normal member is free. But to download Visual studio you need to be a premium member (according to you), and being a premium member isn't free.So how does it work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So how does it work? 60452[/snapback] From what I remember, register as a normal member (I think you use your .NET passport for that). Then go to premium spoke and signup for imagine cup. Spoke premium should then be free - my friend (I think his username in melkonianarg -site paidway.co.uk) had this trouble to - and so emailed them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt1eD 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2005 If one could then it would be easy. See my hexus post on it.http://forums.hexus.net/retail-therapy-bargains/43441-free-spoke-premium-subscription.htmlI'm sorry, but it is not as hard as everybody is making out. I coped fine with just looking at the site Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
