I got mine last week. It took a long time. About 2 months from the time I
ordered it if memory serves. It even took a couple of weeks after I got the
"it's in the mail" email.

If you consider the volume involved with an International no cost and free
shipping offer covering a whole spread of operating systems from Microsoft
it's hardly a wonder that there would be some confusion.

Comes with a free year of antivirus and firewall from eTrust too.

If you're unhappy you could always ask for your money back. ;-)
