Windows 7 Promotional Launch Party Help Video

Microsoft will be releasing Windows 7 on October 22nd and as part of their launch promotions, they’ve asked people to host launch parties for the new OS. If chosen as a host, you’d have received a free Signature Edition of Windows 7 Ultimate and run a chance to win a $750. The video was created for these chosen hosts as both a promotional tool and somewhat of an instructional video on how to host one of these parties. Never mind now though since confirmations are already being sent out. The point here is just how freaking horrible and asinine the video is.

Dont buy Vista for next 18 days!!!

Are you planning to buy Vista??? Then postpone the plane for next 18 days. There is a surprise for vista buyers who purchase it after 26 June 2009...

Consumers who purchase a Vista-based computer on or after June 26 will be allowed to upgrade to Windows 7 for free!!! Yep you read it right. A leaked corporate memo from electronics retailer Best Buy states this information. The memo states that Best Buy (and presumably its competitors) will launch a "Technology Guarantee" program on June 26, under which anyone who purchases a PC running Vista Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate can install Windows 7 at no extra charge when the latter becomes available Oct. 22.
