    Somewhat?? Jak...Show us some good ole 'British' emotion here, if there is such a thing LOL

    Its not all that uncommon to recieve some perks for something.. exp. ; your job, efforts made towards an endeaver, or even putting forth some form of humanity. "That does not make it free, but a perk" Even good karma will pop up in the strangest places. It happens..

    Only "somewhat" because the level of service you recieve in exchange for the tuition fees paid is quite frankly shoddy to say the least.

    I see... LOL Hope everything else is going good for ya.

    No doubt I will porbably be one of the last users to get Vista. More so because its not my major priority, rather then any nusances or bugs..etc.. Too many HW upgrades i want first.. money money money... thats all it boils down to for me in truth.

    I picked up and did a clean install of Vista Premium Upgrade today. It is a bit quirky on my system; but that's why I'm dual booting.

    I'm in the process of doing the clean install of Vista Ultimate-- I bought a second HD for it just because I don't trust Vista's drivers. (As soon as I get drivers for everything I'll dump XP).

    I had a couple of worries about the clean upgrade (it sounded too good to be true as it does allow an upgrade without verifying the previous CD) but finally decided it was both doable and legitimate. It clearly states on the packaging (in the box that says it's the Upgrade Edition) that a backup and clean install may be necessary.

    That says MS approves of clean installs on upgrade editions.
