    Seriously debating formatting my system (ugh @ reinstalling *edited* though) and putting the Win 7 up that you can get for $30. Mitch, Mike, Shane, etc.. any reviews? Comparisons or contrasts to Vista Ultimate I have running on my rig still?

     

    Unfortunately the $30 is the “upgrade” isn’t it though?

    its $47 shipped for the DVD $30 for the Download.

     

     

    im curious if you can reformat vista to a fresh W7 with the download version.

    My review is this: GET IT NOW!

     

    It’s lightyears better than Vista.

     

    As for the fresh install, it’s really up to you. You don’t HAVE to but I would. I’ve seen some in-place upgrades fail and well, that’s not the boat you want to be in.

     

    You might try swinging by the CRIB with a DVD and see if they can burn you a copy.

    I just bought the upgrade version of windows 7 ultimate….. i got it for 17 bones. I’m planning on reformatting and installing it (using a windows vista ultimate cd key as the previous os serial).

     

    Does anyone see how this could be a problem? Right now I don’t have my discs for microsoft office so that kinda sucks. I might have to wait some more. UGH

    If you have your key you can download the trial and then pop the license into that.

    I would say its definitely an improvement but I mean if you are happy with how your system is running there really aren’t many new features, its just more efficient

    It didn’t play nice with my xp partition back in beta, had to format the whole disk to get it to boot.. Gonna wipe my xp out and reinstall a full copy of 7 soon.
