Actually, will probably just upgrade my Vista machine, and will run the windows 7 upgrade Advisor. Since it is a beta, I was going to wait until just before I get the upgrade hoping its beta status had changed. I will probably leave my XP machines alone as I am not unhappy with them.
Since I bought a new laptop last year, it will be a few years before I invest in another, so the upgrade that will go with new machines won’t affect me. I want to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 because of all the good things that have been said about it, and everyone who has been in on the beta testing seems to think it works a lot better than Vista. Am I wrong?
I have Vista Home Premium and am going for Windows 7 Home Premium.

Just ordered Win 7 H/P through Newegg, (Free shipping).
Amazon and Best Buy have it with free shipping too. Although I had to pay 5% tax at Best Buy. I guess everyone is getting on the bandwagon.

Yeah, I already had a Newegg account,so that’s why I went there. I didn’t have to pay taxes. (don’t know why)

Best Buy has stores in Maine, so therefore we pay tax. Newegg is an internet supplier, so no tax; although the states are trying to get online stores to pay state sales tax.
I had a friend use the Windows 7 upgrade Advisor and it told her she didn’t have enough RAM even though she has 2 GIGs and a 2.0 Intel Dual processor. Go figure.
