Looks like they will give you a "free copy of Vista RC1" - this is a
timebombed, "release candidate" version that is actually quite old and has a
lot of issues that have since been fixed. It was available for free from
Microsoft anyway.
But they are also sending an Express Upgrade coupon for the full version of
Vista though ... cool. I wouldn't bother installing the RC1 at this point
though.
