I think this is just going to be about the upgrade program which will give people, who buy new Windows Vista computers, a chance to upgrade for free.

True, but then so does the official Windows 7 website, as it looks exactly like that smile.gif

Interesting but I think this is about the upgrade program which will start from the said date, which I won't be needing anymore.

Well duh....

The fact it say "upgradeoption" in the url gives it away.

Most likely pricing and upgrade information. Which should be pretty obvious.

Site registered to "Microsoft Licensing GP" in Reno, NV? Hosted on a German server belonging to Bertelsmann Media. Maybe this is for their European customers? Or they are outsourcing marketing? It just seems strange that a site for Microsoft's flagship product would be handled outside of Redmond and the main MSFT infrastructure.

Edit: seems the site has changed since I saw it this morning; so the bottom says that it's maintained on behalf of MSFT by Microsoft Licensing GP, and MLGP's website seems to suggest that they cater to special groups, like OEMs and not to the general retail market...
