Today's the day.

Look for good deals on Windows 7 pricing. You can get deals online, or if
you can't wait, look for "Family Packs" at the big box stores and the
computer stores which enable you to acquire Windows 7 for only about 65
bucks a copy (which is pretty inexpensive - especially for people who use
their software day in and day out all year).

Windows 7 is upgradable. It runs faster than Vista, so if you already have a
computer that can handle Vista, then you have a computer that can run
Windows 7. And in the real world, even older computers can run Windows 7
decently if they have a gig or two of RAM (cheap) and a capable video card
(most any you can get today).

Only true in the States. In the EU, Win 7 is expensive.

True, I installed it on a compute running an AMD XP 2400+ processor with
1.5 gigs of RAM and an nVidia 6200 with 256MB RAM and it ran fine. It's
an imitation of a Mac and Linux but Microsoft isn't exactly famous for
innovating. They are more into stealing others' ideas and saying that
they are their own.

Can't seem to find the Windows 7 Pro upgrade link on the 741.com web
site. All I get is the Home Premium upgrade.

Anyone have a link to the Pro upgrade?

Please repost you question in the Windows 7 Answers Forum:

P.S. I was talking Canadian dollars.

In US dollars, it would be less than 50 bucks per copy.

Great! And then in about 6-12 months it will actually be usable!

In the early 80's. I learned the hard way, from DEC RSX - you NEVER
upgrade to anything as soon as it's released. There are ALWAYS problems.

Quite frankly, I don't expect to ever see it running in my house - I'm
brighter than that and I care more for my money. Linux is perfectly
adequate.

We all know of your hatred and contempt for all things Microsoft which
begs the question...WTF are you here?

BestBuy for example:

[Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Family Pack - BestBuy website]
[url]http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9493185&type=product&id=1218113928235[/url]

Watch the URL wrap. With 3 copies in the pack, it comes in at less the 50
bucks a copy.
