My dad has had it for a while because he's a Microsoft partner. Maybe I'm bias because I use Mac, but I was really unimpressed with it.

Philly, how does 7 compare to Snow Leopard?

How do you know if you qualify for an upgrade? lame nvm!
To be eligible for the DellTM Windows® 7 Upgrade Option program, you must purchase a Dell system between June 26, 2009 and December 31, 2009 |

I preordered in June. It was a short term thing.

Ahhh okay.
I was checking for my mom and I remember her logic being "well if it's $120 I might as well spend a couple hundred bucks more and get a whole new computer!" |

Yeah, I think what happened was that it started and they said it was for an unspecified amount of time, and once they decided "enough" had been
preordered, they were going to hike the price. So I got it on the first or second day of that.

For home I am sticking with Windows XP - I don't need anything more.
At work we did the Vista upgrade last year, I doubt we are going to go through that again so we will probably stay for now. However Vista really sucks and has lots of problems so I hope we eventually upgrade to 7. |

I get a free upgrade to 7 with my laptop, but I don't know if I want to do it yet. I want to wait and see what people say about it before I do the upgrade.

I picked I'm happy with XP but I probably will one day. I had to start all over on my computer like 4 months ago, I don't want to do it again. I mean,
I had everything backed up for the most part (thankfully) but I don't want to do it again any time soon.
I never upgraded to Vista because I HATE IT WITH A PASSION. But I will say that if I get a free copy I would sooner than later. I've never paid for Windows in my life. My brother is an IT guy and has always gotten me a copy. |
