Vista - How to Get Vista for Free?

This is so excellent! A friend sent me this tip on how to possibly upgrade
to Vista for free! Check out the video to see how you, too, can benefit from
this offer. The upgrade path seems easy enough, but check out what
LifeJustIs2007 sent to me last night:

I managed to get a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate. I've been using it for
quite a while, went back to XP for a little bit and now I'm back to Vista
Ultimate again to give it one last chance and see if maybe I'm not seeing
something that I should be, which chances are I'm seeing everything there is
to see about Vista..which you know is not much. I do have to say the visual
effects are impressive and pretty however I agree with you 100% that this is
not the most important thing to the consumer and is just a marketing scheme
to get people to buy the product based on looks and not functionality. I
would highly recommend that anyone considering buying Windows Vista not
waste their money on Windows Vista Ultimate as the features that are
included do not differ so much as the much less expensive Home Premium and
Home Basic for those who don't need Aero or the Media Center functionality.

Has Microsoft come a long way? I believe they have but I will say that
your statement about Vista not being what the consumer wants and or needs is
100% true. The average consumer just wants to know that they can turn on
their machine and it will just work and not have to worry about tasks just
to keep Windows barely running. For the most I see no reason to upgrade to
Windows Vista. Drivers haven't seemed to be a problem for me much but I will
say I have found a few glitches, luckily no BSODs. Windows Vista needs a lot
of work and hopefully they have realized that. All my programs that I
normally use seem to be functioning but I can see what everyone talks about
with it not being worth the money to upgrade other than to impress your
friends.

The next version of Windows really needs to be fresh code and they need to
stop copying Apple. You can't make the Windows world an Apple world, it just
doesn't happen! Sure you can slap on a skin with Windows Blinds or a similar
product but Windows will never be Mac and Mac will never be Windows, end of
story. As for my overall opinion of Vista..it's not ready for the public, it's
really not, I think they should have worked faster and harder and not have
slacked off for 6 years. The operating system is a mess and it needs to be
fixed.

Now onto the next subject..Mac. I believe that Mac is doing extremely
well, I've never owned a Mac but have had the pleasure of playing with one
in one of the Apple Stores at a local mall. I think they are sleek and
exactly what the average person needs. Yes they cost a lot of money but for
what I see, you're getting a damn good machine for your hard earned cash. If
I had a job right now that was bringing in the dough, I'd be buying a Mac. I
watched the whole demo on Apples website and I must tell you, it blows
Windows Vista out of the water and I am impressed beyond belief. The
simplest way I can put it, you buy a Mac and you will prevent a lot of
headaches, now of course I can only base this on the hours spent in an Apple
store using the Macs and testing them out but I figured I'd share what I
thought. Thanks for taking the time to read this and let me know what you
think. See you around in chat.

Free Windows Vista?

... and it's worth every penny.

cheaper than Linux :-)
