So I’m closing out the year still without access to the MVLS web site and I know from others posting that they are in the same condition.
Granted OEM software distribution sucks (like we’ve had two Windows 7 consumerish newly purchased computers arrive and neither one had true media and you had to burn in your own), but you do have the software somewhere.
What this has done for me is question deeply if I want to buy Open Value licenses in the future. The value of Open Value to many is the upgrade, not the benefits of the platform itself.
It’s getting harder and harder to justify open value based on the time wasted to try and get access and the real (and not perceived) benefits.
So for all those of you that are still banging your head, keep the faith.
Or try to at least.
