Exactly why I don't do free maintenance for anyone but my mother. :)
Windows 7 Buyer's Guide: Which Edition is Right for You?

I can't imagine an OS upgrade ever being the right option, but I can imagine it being the only option and/or the easiest option.
Frankly, if anyone's got themselves in a situation where they can't completely burn down their system and get everything back within a few hours, they need to re-examine their backup and software maintenance strategy.

How about we just agree that adding a signature (any signature) to news comments is kind of lame.

Ermm...no. I've just been using Win7 for several months now, and think it's a better product than Vista. Much faster boot times, much better task bar, etc. You can certainly make an argument that Win7 should be free to Vista owners, but $50 is pretty cheap in my world. I have no use for or interest in the ultimate edition.

Seems pretty clear to me that the pre-order will be the same as upgrade editions you buy 5 months from now, and that the upgrades will inbclude 32 and 64 bit. The RC release would be a very large file to download if not split into separate versions.

32- and 64-bit apparently included in upgrade editions. Read above.

Ah, yeah, That's what I meant. I've never "upgraded" Windows. I always do a full wipe & reinstall.

Does the retail media include both 32- and 64-bit versions? If you have an OEM 32-bit version, will an upgrade allow you to install the 64-bit?
Windows 7 Pricing and Upgrade Programs Revealed!
Posted 06/25/2009 at 04:00:34pm
The comments here are proving what a genius move it was to make the Win7 beta freely available.
Even though I think the pricing is a bit high, I've been using the pre-release verisions for so long that I can't imagine not buying a copy as soon as it's available.
