I heard that laptop manufacturers (HP, Acer etc) are going to offer a free upgrade to Windows 7 if you buy a laptop now, but that they will charge for postage and packing. Does anyone know how much each manufacturer will charge for them?

I have two laptops and one PC which are all running Windows Vista at the moment. I see you can buy a Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade – 3 User Family Pack for £129.99 but I am not sure if this will be fine for my three computers or if I need to buy three Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium full versions. Any advice would be great.

I got a new computer and it comes with a free Windows 7 upgrade when it comes out.
I want to know if installing it will get rid of all my files, programs, games etc.
Can someone please help me with this?

I am getting a new laptop which will be eligible for a free windows 7 home premium upgrade.

I also have windows xp on my desktop, will I be able to use the same serial number on my laptop and desktop?

Also, I have read that windows 7 uses less memory, etc and is faster just like xp.

I was wanting to buy a Windows OS to put on my new MacBook using BootCamp since I miss all of my Windows stuff, so if I buy Windows Vista (not the upgrade version) will I be able to claim a copy of Windows 7 once it comes out?

The windows 7 family pack (3 license) upgrade is supposed to be available in Canada, but I can not find anywhere to do it (Amazon.com will not ship this to Canada).
US Vendors will not typically ship US versions of things to Canada.
Answered: www.ncix.com is carrying them, although they are backordered.

Also, do I need to pay extra to do this?

My current computer is running vista and I bought myself the windows 7 upgrade disk (campus store already has ‘em in). What I want to know is what disk I should use to reformat my computer in the future; my old windows vista disk or the windows 7 upgrade disk I bought. Oh and by the way the guy at the desk said that the disk wouldn’t work until that magical day on October 22 when its officially released; any ideas what would stop me (unreleased drivers, the software is coded such, etc.)?

I bought an alienware laptop about 2 months ago and it came with windows 7 free upgrade according to the bestbuy website. How do I get the free upgrade for alienware? i know its dell but it is not listed in the windows 7 upgrade website, and there is no alienware option. Should i call alienware or bestbuy?
