Intel Galileo Board Free!

Well any one that sing up have received anything other than a 2nd email yet?
Probably Not !!!

Microsoft may be scammers, but you guys are hilarious.

They already have all the info they want about you, guaranteed.

Maybe, the government does, apple, microsoft and google definitely, these might be the non-legit pirates or one of those creative advertisement scam scheme scum for this new board.

And why would they only send the second email that requests additional info to some? If they were fishing everyone would be getting the follow up

Might be a scheme of things to make it look legit.

I'm having a friend that works at MS to check if this is a for real giveaway trial or if it's scam artists phishing for your personal info

Check, let us know at least if not all interested me. Dam this bugs me, greed greed greed, no such thing as flee lunch.
if you check the internet registration of that site, it is not exactly microsoft owned

Woke up with a wet one.

Woke up with a wet one this morning, the FedEx guy actually delivered the board from Microsoft. Thought this was a dead. hmmmm now off I go to get my Rigol 2102 oscilloscope and some heat and pressure sensors.

 

[rice rocket]

Man, how did the biggest complainer get his first?! Where is the justice!

 

[dogdog]

IDK, I don't complain, just wine and dine and have some cheese along the way. I figure that I owe this thread an update, that is all..... Maybe it was dependent on what your project idea you submitted. Mine was on the pressure/temp/moisture monitor and a remote on/off for my air compressor.

It just showed up out of the Blue? No other correspondence?

Na, just found their Email from two days ago on tracking numbers some how it went to the Ignore bin cause I thought this was a spam from Microsoft. As far as to the point till this morning and the time I posted update, consider it as out of the blue WetOnes.

[quattroJoe]

Woohoo! Hope mine shows up soon

 

[kd3pc]

Got mine about 3 weeks back, fairly complete, but you need some software to make it play. I am in the process of downloading visual studio now...

 

[A_Pmech]

I never got mine, but bought a gen 2 instead. I fairly quickly found the limits of running sketches as a client on the linux system. Need more power, Scotty!

Quark developers manual and source code downloaded... Time to strip this thing down...
