Vista - MSDN Vista ultimate edition

Can anyone else request the product key for vista ultimate edition through
MSDN? I can get business version and home premium version with no problems,
but when trying to request ultimate edition key just errors.

"Error while requesting Product Keys. Please try again later or contact
customer support" Thank you for your patience.

Is it just me?

Thanks,
Ian

It should be working within the next 24 hours - they're having problems with
the servers up there.

Try the same key you used for 5342 and up. It should give you the Ultimate
edition.

Aye - MSDN don't have 5342 though, and they can't use their 5308 key because
it just won't work. Keep working on the new key though, should be fixed
soon!
