No, it's defined by when you buy it, sadly. If you buy in the stated time frame and fax or mail in your registration, then you have to re-register online (bizarrely). But if you buy outside the time, you are ineligible. It's a badly worded offer IMHO.


Oh well...

Buy online?


That point is a little vague to me.. The Terms and Conditions (
http://www.macromedia.com/special/mx2004_upgrade/offer/terms/) state:


ELIGIBILITY: For customers who, between November 11, 2003 (12:01 AM PST) and
December 31, 2003 (11:59 PM PST), purchase and register online a Qualified
Product. Purchasers of Eligible Products who fax or mail-in registrations
must re-register online for this Offer.





I read the above as [(Purchase) AND (Register Online)] and not as [ {(Purchase) AND (Register)} Online ]

As for early buyers, isn't "Purchasers of Eligible Products who fax or
mail-in registrations must re-register online for this Offer" for you? It is
late and I might be reading all this wrong, but I get the idea that you have
to re-register despite having done so already via Fax or Mail-in??


I'll be purchasing a product in the very near future, so interesting to hear
what others think.. Thanks for the info though..

Subject: [WSG] OT: Macromedia extensions offer



Any Macromedia MX 2004 users seen the offer they are running at the
moment? They're giving away some free (and quite useful) extensions for
Flash, Dreamweaver and Fireworks - but only to users who buy online now
before the end of the year.

Am I the only one who is a bit annoyed at this? I bought that software
the day it came out and have been advocating it to new users ever since
(despite its flaws). It seems a bit much to penalise early adopters by
denying them extensions available to people buying now. It's only when
you read the small print you see the offer is that limited.

Anyway, sorry for the OT post but I just wanted to gauge opinion before
possibly complaining to MM...
