I signed up for this last night and it says that in 2 to 4 weeks I will have the CDs.
From what I have been reading from people that have recieved their CDs it includes all the security patches and other updates right up to Feb 2004. On the site it says 2003 sometime.
I figured what the heck, it would be nice to have all the security patches and updates on a CD just incase instead of having to download them if/when I reformat.
I also figured, hey what the heck, its free. You don't pay a cent for it at all.
I think it does a check of your reg and other stuff so if you running a cracked version of windows, I would not advise you to do this. But all others with legal copies I say go for it. I couldn't hurt to have a CD with all the patches on it.
