Oh, and one other thing that is too cool. I am not sure about WIN7, but with Vista you can do a CLEAN install with an upgrade disk. Let me know if you want to know how. Save a hundred or so.
Paul Thurrott's site still has
the method of getting a full install of Vista with an upgrade disk, saving the cost of the full version. I always thought this was fair, given the fact Microsoft essentially sold us Vista as the beta version of Windows 7. The reason this worked is that Vista does not need to be "activated" on line before the second time the disk is inserted to qualify the 1st install.
Windows 7 must be "activated", so this method no longer works.
