Free 32Mb memory stick from Dell

The link will take you to Dell. Basically, you click through a 5-min commerciald to get a prize. The "quiz" is really easy and lets you try over until you get it right.

For those of you who don't know, a memory stick is like a baby hardrive that you plug into a USB port. Very useful for transferring files between computers. 

Trust me, you want one.

They probably are doing this because they would just discard the RAM anyway.

Worth your address?
I think not.

I think not.

They already have my address so I might as well get some benefit from them having that information.  I already have a 256MB stick, but I could always use another, my spouse would like it.  Thanks for the heads up Barabbas.

Edit:  The site is not working, I played around with the site address and I'm starting to suspect that it is not even a Dell site.  I would hold off until more information about this can be found.

I tried to do it and it kept telling me the code was invalid. I'd love to have a 32 meg card. Oh well.

If it starts working again, please let me know!

Dell randomly does ridiculous stuff. Two weeks ago they had Axim X30s for 30% off.

I completed the thing 5 minutes before I started this thread, but now I follow my link and the top left corner of the first page says 'Expired'.... 

Sorry about that, everyone.  My bad!     :-[

Yeah, I got a "offer temporarily unavailable" message on a nondescript page.

I agree, Barabbas, I am using a 256 MB SD card for carrying and transferring files, a 128 MB one in a HP 49G+ calculator, and I CAN STILL USE ANOTHER smaller one for some data files, just to keep 'em separate from the other stuff I switch around all the time.

If you don't mind, keep us posted!  I wouldn't mind getting it.  Dell already sends stuff to my house.
