pyrochild Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Yes, but then you lose the enormous security benefit that UAC provides. Windows 7's UAC is much smarter about things like that.

Rick Brewster Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/window ... ows-7.aspx Whoa :shock: $30 for a copy of Win7 if you're a student. I think that's cheaper than I can get it for, as an employee!

Sozo Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windows7/archive/2009/09/17/student-offer-for-windows-7.aspxWhoa :shock: $30 for a copy of Win7 Pro if you're a student. I think that's cheaper than I can get it for, as an employee! I was just checking that out earlier, I'll totally go for that, so long as I'm eligible. Posting from the W7 RC, incidently.

DarkShock Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 Wow that's sweet. Thank goodness I just started college. Looks like Microsoft is really trying to get people to upgrade. I checked the page to order it, but it shows Windows 7 Home Premium for students. Not Pro.

Simon Brown Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I checked the page to order it, but it shows Windows 7 Home Premium for students. Not Pro. A few months ago, I pre-ordered pro thinking it'd mean something similar to the pro editions of XP and Vista, but later realised that the most useful (IMAO) extra feature it had was XP Mode.

Sozo Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 XP Mode doesn't really matter all that much to me. I can get virtual XP installations through my computer lab. Also, I'm eligible! Yeah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 7 Ultimate for $20 is NIIICE. :-) Quote  The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguba Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I used this to get a free Windows 7 upgrade. If you buy Vista from June 26, '09 to Jan 26, '10 you qualify for a free upgrade by typing in the product key on the box. However, I bought my Vista upgrade over a year ago and my product key still worked. You guys may wanna check it out.

impossible9 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I've recently bought Windows Vista Ultimate from the Microsoft Store, but i'm not exactly sure how will i get hold of my free Windows 7 once it's out.
