Title: Ghost 2003 bundled with Ghost 10
Post by Christer on Apr 26th, 2007 at 3:10am
Hello all!

I apologize for being a lazy bugger but I can not find the information I search for. To make a long story short (?):

I was given an Amazon.com Gift Certificate and wondered what to do with it. I am/was not an Amazon customer but went there and had a look. The only thing I could find was a retail Ghost 10 to get my hands on the most recent version of the Ghost 2003 CD. I soon found out that "this item can not be shipped to Sweden".

I went to Amazon.co.uk and found a corresponding offer which could be shipped to Sweden but my Amazon.com Gift Certificate could not be redeemed at Amazon.co.uk.

Anyway, I mailed the seller, asking him to confirm that both CDs (Ghost 10 + Ghost 2003) were included. (I assumed that the possibility of separated sales was not unlikely.) This is what he responded:


Quote:
Hi there,
well the disc that comes bundled with ghost 10 actually has ghost 9 printed on it but IS 2003, not sure why this is, you probably know more than me

Is this right or what ... :-? ... I expected a Ghost 2003 CD labeled Ghost 2003? He continued:


Quote:
i can sell you just the 2003 disc if you like

which indicates that my assumption above was not all wrong!

Thanks in advance for any insight,
Christer

In the USA, insisting on a sealed retail boxed copy of Norton Ghost 10.0 or either a sealed retail boxed Symantec bundle that contains NG10 will get you the lagniappe v2003 CD.  I infer from statements by GhostUserD in the thread referenced below that it may be true for Germany as well:

Thanks, Pesky!

What do you mean by "lagniappe"? I can't find it in my dictionary.
