Default Free Vista Business from Power Together

My free copy of Vista Business finally came from the Power Together campaign.

Anyone else get Vista or Office 2007 while the offer was going? Just curious.

I got my Vista business about 2 days ago, installed yesterday. I'm running from it now. It takes a bit of getting us to, IMO, but it's good overall.

Only things bothering me is I can't use my mic and slightly decreased gaming performance, but that was expected. It may be a driver problem, because I'm using creative beta drivers.

I had my friend register under Office 2007, because I didn't want to deal with the W9 tax form and all that. However, he hasn't gotten it yet, so I'm hoping it's just delayed and he didn't get denied or anything.

Just out of curiosity, does Vista Business use Aero?

Sure does. Business includes everything home premium does except for the media center options.

@ Enterprise: I've messed with Vista for 3 or so hours already and I'm still finding new options. I didn't even know there was a voice system!! lol, it's different, but it's good. I like it.

I have vista enterprise edition, and i am planning on getting ultimate edition later this week (both free from my university). I really don't need the ultimate, but it make me e-penis feel bigger.
