Office 2007 on MSDN SNAFU

I downloaded Office 2007, OneNote 2007, Project 2007 and Visio 2007 from MSDN on Sunday so I could install the final released products.

I spent all day Monday attempting to get keys and failed.

I finally got keys on Tuesday and installed the software.

Office 2007 installed and activated fine

OneNote 2007 installed and activated fine

Project 2007 installed and activated fine

Visio 2007 installed and would not activate.  Complained the product key was already used.

Come to find out the same product key is provided for Visio and Project but it can only be used once.   Whichever one is activated first wins.

Went to download the SaveAs PDF add-in and the Genuine Microsoft Software check told me that the Project 2007 key I obtained from MSDN was a false/counterfeit key.

Fun, Fun!!

Hey Chris, I'm sorry I'm not alone, but also glad that my misery has company:

If you find a solution please post it... I've gotten nowhere quickly.
