Weeks ago I got an email promising free `Visual Studio
2005 <http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio>`__ if I qualify
for the `Microsoft <http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=4338.HK>`__
Award for Customer Excellence from
`www.microsoft-ace.com <http://www.microsoft-ace.com>`__,
which, according to some Microsoft employees, is a genuine
Microsoft program website, but is also registered by a third
party, and has a problem with the `SSL
certificate <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security>`__.

Today, I got a `UPS <http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=UPS>`__
package with 3
`V <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Studio_Application_Lifecycle_Management>`__\ isual
Studio Team System
with `MSDN <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Developer_Network>`__
Premium redemption cards and a Microsoft-watermarked paper
stating "thank you for your passionate support for VSTS"... but
from `www.mvpinvite.com <http://www.mvpinvite.com>`__, another
website registered by 3rd party and seems has something to do
with my MVP membership? So confusing...
