    See the fine print under the $30 cash back offer :D

    In case someone is not able to read it, I will quote it below :)

    There are some other quotes on the box too, but some are not readable. Some really funny stuff like terms and conditions to use this software which say that you must abandon Yahoo!, Google and others completely and start living with Microsoft. To contact Microsoft, grab your indications and count to three....

    Thanks Firecat!!! :thumb: :thumb:

    The art work and design of the Firefox box is really excellent!!! Microsoft should consider using this design for future new products!!! :D :D :D

    I like this design better than the new Vista box design!!! :-* :-*

    Thanks, I had to stress my eyes a little bit to get it correctly. Actually I got some of the wording wrong, the correct quote is as follows:

    Anyway, if the website developers are reading this, I request them to make the box more readable in order to improve the user experience!

    And yes, I agree, the box design is neat! :)
