***. I accidentally selected test burn and not burn.

Oh well.

It's at 51% legitimately burned now.

Windows 7 is nice and i like it better than vista, but there is nothing wrong with vista as long as you have the x64 bit verison. If you dont or you still want to switch to Win7, go preorder it now since you can get home premium for ~$40.

The RC version is good until march. After march it will shutdown every 2 hours until june. When it hits june, it will stop working completely. So you really dont have to buy it untill then but IMO it would be worth it to since its really cheap if preordered

My cousin works fairly high up in MS and gets me OSes just for the price of the tax ... which works out to under $5 Not worried about that.

Anywho, it is installing now. I am on
my Samsunh Eternity ... wish I had a netbook. Would be nice.

I tried Win7 back when the first release candidate came out and I thought it looked pretty decent at the time. Wasn't convinced to totally switch, but maybe by the time the first service pack is out for Win7
