Vista Ultimate Extras

I have a licensed copy of Vista Ultimate 64bit on a machine thats run in
isolation(Deliberately). I'm quite happy to confirm my Product ID to a
microsoft rep if needs be to confirm the license(Over the phone obviously not
to any claimant!) What I was wondering is if it would be possible to obtain
the vista ultimate extras on a cd or dvd. Since obviously I have no means to
get hold of them.

Any ideas?

So far as I know there is no legal way to update Vista Ultimate with
the extras except by the Update program. Sorry.

Genius. Great idea. But? How to run the Microsoft Applet in Linux?

It is your choice to have the machine isolated, and Microsoft are not about
to produce standalone Ultimate Extras and set up a production run for them
because of your decision..

If that happens, you won't need a PC to figure out you've just become a
source of food.

Why not wrap yourself in Cling Wrap now, and hop up into the freezer.

erm... People survived long before computers and could survive quite well
without them.

So retard, you say you have fixed thousands of computers? So you work for
the GeekSquad at a BestBuy? Those idiots can hardly find their own asshole
with a roadmap. Typical.

The thing is you have no clue how to even configure Vista. Those that can't
get Vista to work are the ones usually bashing Vista. Just because you are
too stupid to figure out Vista, doesn't mean you should bash it day after
day.

But we can survive without a retard like you here on Earth.

You can't use a computer to save your own life. Better migrate to DOS 6.22.

I suggest you shove your head back up your ass because you are mentally
challenged. Just FYI.
