Superb, this is a great idea in anticipation for the upcoming release of the new OS (October 22).

And if anyone catches wind about an official Vista to 7 upgrade plan/discount, be sure to post that because I'm curious.

Neat-o!  I just saw this board... Glad to see you guys have migrated everything over!  And I think this was a great idea

The best OS since Windows XP

I sometimes called Windows 7, Windows Vista 2 lol 

[#6]

Just as Windows 95 was revolutionary, I believe Windows 7 to be the next big thing.  Recieving near-universal acclaim before its even released in its full version.

I have a quick question.

I see that Future Shop is offering free upgrades to Windows 7.

I'm planning to buy a gateway laptop at a different store but has vista on it.

Can I still get a free upgrade?

[#8]

Depends on that store's policy and Gateway's policy.  You'll have to inquire in store basically.  But if it's a major national retailer, chances are that yes, the free upgrade will be provided.  Otherwise, Microsoft is currently offering Windows 7 upgrades at 50% off for the Home Premium and Professional editions.  Future Shop is selling pre-orders on their website .

Don't mean to be a fear-mongerer, but read the fine print on the upgrade shenanigans here.  You'll be waiting for 8-10 weeks after October 22nd for your copy of Windows.

With the "Free upgrade to Vista" promotion that happened when Vista was originally announced, I waited 4 months to receive the Free Vista Upgrade.

I would expect this Free upgrade promotion to follow a similar pattern
