If you buy a new computer now or bought one within the last year you will get a free upgrade to windows 7 but microsoft recommends that you don't upgrade but do a clean install of windows 7. If you are not buying a new computer you can purchase a upgrade version for $ 200 AU, still a clean install its just that you need a previous version's disc to do the install. Yeah Julian I feel the same about Beta software but I have to say this version and the beta one before it is as bug free as I have ever seen a windows product even after the service packs are released. After the version I am using runs out in october next year I will be purchasing at least 4 copies of WIN 7 as it is a big improvement over XP. Vista doesn't even rate a mention in the mix. Yes data loss is possible but I am so confident in it that I am using it for work. I work in the IT industry as a computer installer and maintenance and trouble shooter.
