[koolbluez]

me having Vista Ultimate... 64 bit... so.. that's not criteria...

 

[iMav]

arre all those who arent getting the vista.aero option .... just type an id and aero option should come automatically if u follow the link .... it happened with me ... just typed the desired user id and the vista.aero option came

and its not necessary to have vista

 

[koolbluez]

iMav... show me the page u were gettin on direct clicking the 2nd link given by AnandK..
I get the getlive.com directly, after all methods tried... then I've to go to link to Live HotMail in that page.. how do u go... a snap'll do better...

you can also get a @microsoft.com just you have to contact the webmaster for that

try this : *domains.live.com/members/signup.aspx?domain=microsoft.com

I see seperate Home page for Live in IE and Firefox. I guess, this has something to do with Vista.

Let me switch windows to Vista and use IE there and see

You mean in the dropdown that is after @ ?

Yes, hotmail.com comes first, but after 1-2 mins, the dropdown changed to vista.aero. I didn't complete the signup but could see the dropdown change.

LOL, my cousin has two Microsoft ID's MS Employee. Actually MS makes two emails of each employee.

One @ microsoft and other first four letters of firstname + first letter of lastname@microsoft. If i got in...it would be sukhk@microsoft
