I Want To Personally Thank Stardock
many thanks and much kudos to you
Thursday, February 5, 2009 by starkers | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
It's one thing to have the greastest customisation software there is, but being able to renew one's subscription to access updates and new features in these tough economic times is another. However, thanks to Stardock's generous offer of renewing for just $20.00 (AUD$30), I was able to up my subscription today for another year.
Without this offer it would have cost just on AUD$100.00 and I simply would not have been able top do it, so many, many thanks to you, Stardock, I am most grateful.
Also, many thanks for 'Fences'. I didn't try any of the beta versions as I felt no need, being quite happy with my desktop icons as they were, but I downloaded the full release today and I must say that I'm quite impressed. Given all the gadgets and icons that are available these days, ones desktop can become quite cluttered, so Fences is the perfect solution to helping tidy up/prevent that clutter. So thanks again, Stardock, I'm as happy as a bonused banker in a money pit.

With this special offer, when you renew from either Object Desktop or Object Desktop Ultimate, you will be automatically upgraded to Object Desktop Ultimate and have an additional 12 months added to your subscription.
Yeah only 20$! thanks Stardock ![]()

Not with the exchange rates as they are... on the receipt I got from Stardock, it stated $100.00 in Oz dollars what I would have had to pay, had I not taken advantage of the discount offer. So yeah, with the Oz dollar faring badly against the greenback, I saved AUD$70.00 today.
Yeah only 20$! thanks Stardock
I don't have a lot of time for corporations and/or big business entities these days - given the cut throat nature of the beasts and how much greed exists unrelentingly - but Stardock is one company that I can say I admire and respect. Not because I got a discount today, but because Stardock has always had a passion for what it does and values its customer base. Hence, we get great service and some pretty spectacular deals on what is arguably the best gaming and customisation software there is.
Yeah, I know that some will say Stardock is only doing this for its survival, and that, in part, is true, but don't we all depend on Stardock's survival to provide us the customisation and gaming fixes we crave so much. So yeah, it is a two-way street... and Stardock scratched my back, so why the hell not scratch back! ![]()

Where does one find said offer? All I've seen is the Wincustomize subscription drive one...

If you are a OD subscriber, you should have gotten an email. I know I did. Of course, when you renew, the offer should come up automatically. Well, I hope it does.
I am adding my thanks as well. That is a sweet offer SD has made. And, I, for one, am very greatful.

Was I just the lucky one? Hmn.......Impluse should promt when you go and renew as well. That is where I finally went and did that. Just copy your registration and input when prompted.
*Immy really likes Impulse....makes renewing very much so easier* ![]()

I bet it depends on when the subscription expires...I got mine about two weeks before mine did. Just a thought.

I too took advantage of the email and saved some money also. Might even renew my WC subscription now for another year, not that it is expirering anytime soon. ![]()

Yeah me too...mine expired in Dec and luckily with this $20 offer, I was able to renew. Although, wouldn't it be the standard $34.95 to renew instead of $100?
