Gmail Priority Inbox – does it work?

Priority Inbox on sidebar

As mentioned by Google a few days ago, they are rolling the Gmail’s Priority Inbox feature to everyone this week. Today, I saw the update on my Gmail (on the top right of the screen). Excited, I decided to turn it on, change a few settings, and “tested” it (What’s Priority Inbox?). My first impression [...]

The conditions to grab these free licenses are:

They will send the license to your email after 48 hours.
Note again, that these are legitimate license keys. You need to download the application though, but once you do, you can then just enter your own license key and activate the product. This is not a SCAM and I’ve got my Vista Ultimate license from Bastillwork.net.

It looks as if I will be getting my paws on a legal copy of PS CS3 after all. Thanks for the heads-up Mike, I have done everything these guys asked for and will just wait to see what happens.

This is good. I can get PS for free. What I have is old. Do we need to choose one software only?

Interesting. If I can get a legal copy of PS CS3 for free, I’ll take it.

Thanks Mike.

How is it possible to know that these Bastillwork aren’t providing pirated license keys? Can they give any guarantee it is not from a keygen?

What they are asking you to do helps to have their articles “stumbled” so they get a lot of traffic, and through their advertising earn a lot of money.

That money is enough to buy licensed copies, but unless someone can prove to me this is legit, I’m inclined to think it’s not legit.

Can anyone geniunely prove it is legit? Once you used your license key were you able to activate properly with any of those programs?

Cheers and thanks

A.

Thanks for dropping in guys. I guess Van is really busy now handling all of your requests :)

@Marlene: Only one software, unfortunately. I know the feeling! I want both Vista and Photoshop

@Canwebesure: Well, I got a free 1 year license of my Kaspersky Internet 6.0 through them some time ago and so far I haven’t been black-listed yet.

I haven’t tried activating the Vista Ultimate Upgade license key yet. I’m still waiting for my new 750 GB hard drive to reformat my Windows :)

It’s an Upgrade version, so you basically have to have Windows installed before “upgrading” it to Vista.

But you can “trick” it to upgrade its own (install it without putting in your license key, and then upgrade itself. So it’s like you install Windows Vista trial to then be upgraded to Vista :) )

Just a quick update. Thanks to this tip-off I received my CS3 license today. I am still downloading but should be finished tomorrow. I cannot wait to play. My thanks to Van and to you Mike.

Sailor, that’s great to hear. Feel free to come back here and convince the rest that this is not a scam by bastillwork.net :)

Unfortunately I have to report that I installed the Photoshop CS3 received from this offer (no problems) just to find that the maximum number of activations allowed for this copy of the software has already been reached. I mailed the guys and will report on whatever happens now.

Great news this time. These guys came back to me and assisted me in getting my brand new copy of Photoshop CS3 all activated and registered. :-)

That’s good to hear, sailor and Nihar!

I myself have already used the Vista Ultimate license key from them and can confirm that I’ve successfully activated it (even installed the Windows Update that’s supposed to check whether I’m using a pirated version or not)

Don’t worry, I’m sure they will think of more great offers in the future. Who knows if one day they’ve decided to bring back the Vista offer!

This offer for the Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate UPGRADE with Service Pack 1, Adobe Photoshop CS3 isn’t avainlable anymore but every software on the site IS, and their is quite a few good program available. So, grab them like it’s hot, and most of the programs are! I’m sure Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate UPGRADE with Service Pack SP1, Adobe Photoshop CS3 will be available again soon.
