I thought this was a scam, but two weeks after receiving this email and forwarding it. Microsoft contacted me at my address and within a few days, I get a check for $ 24, 800.00. You need to respond before the beta test runs out. If anyone can afford it, Bill Gates is the man. It's all the marketing expense for it. Please send this to as many people as possible.
