Thanks for the live blogging. Interesting stuff!

#20 eON on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:42

Paying so much, you would expect some good extras/"free stuff" heh.

#21 Yagi on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:44

Well here goes nothing

#22 kronix2 on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:45

I'm surprised more people haven't commented here.

Nice to see Windows 7 comes on disc as well. I assumed the copies would only run off the external drives as a security measure.

#23 Helito on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:45

I would like to get it. Thanks!

#24 Islander on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:52

Well there's still time until the end of week. I somehow didn't like the new taskbar at first, but I start to feel curious about how it feels in real time. So here's my comment, maybe I'm lucky

#25 LordJTC on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:56

Kewl. Thanks for all the great coverage by the way - appreciate all the many screenshots and videos!

#26 GreyWolfSC on 28 Oct 2008 - 22:56

I've needed a backup drive forever.

And that would be a cool way to distribute Windows, too.

#27 rootsradicals55 on 28 Oct 2008 - 23:03

Windows 7 looks awesome!

#28 rm20010 on 28 Oct 2008 - 23:03

What about that nice greyish disc sitting on the top right... can that be given away as well?

edit: wait a sec, will the HDD be formatted or will the included bits be left on there?

#29 dhan on 28 Oct 2008 - 23:06

Why am I posting? I never win such stuff.

#30 thealexweb on 28 Oct 2008 - 23:07

I'll give it ago, I've commented.

#31 mcloum on 28 Oct 2008 - 23:09

I'd gladly ditch linux for this drive

Windows 7 looks awesome so far!

#44 +ScottishLad on 29 Oct 2008 - 00:16

#45 betaxajx on 29 Oct 2008 - 00:22

#46 Helito on 29 Oct 2008 - 00:27

M$ hasn't answered questions about how many SKU's of Windows 7 will be produced (my guess is more), but it does look like the disc in the picture says Windows 7 Ultimate.

I wouldn't mind the goods, either.

#114 Frankenb34nS on 29 Oct 2008 - 13:48

Alright Free Goodies

#115 DOOOMKULTUS on 29 Oct 2008 - 13:56

#243 +Jimmy0 on 29 Oct 2008 - 19:40

As a side note, I wasn't expecting Windows 7 physical media, I thought it'd only be ISO's on the HDD.

#251 S_N on 29 Oct 2008 - 20:13

#252 Spartan Erik on 29 Oct 2008 - 20:15

I have looked at all the other comments and it is with great considerations that I think they all deserve to be winners, but not here, I in fact am the the one and only clear winner in this great giveaway. I will not beg, wine, or even plead with the powers that be, that I do in fact need a new or used HDD and I really don't need the cable but I will take it any way.
So with that I would like to say good luck to every one. ;>]

#379.1 WAR-DOG on 31 Oct 2008 - 20:46

good argument

#380 TechGuyPA on 30 Oct 2008 - 15:54

As a person who has to deal with non-tech every day helping use equipment they really shouldnt be touching, I should get the drive. Who else here gets yelled at because the user cant find the "Any" key and its my fault. So please please ME!

Windows 7 is just great. The performance increase, the usability, the sensors and .NET 4.0 will give us a brand new experience of Windows. It would just feel gigantic to test it!

#387 martinDTanderson on 30 Oct 2008 - 16:45

Does the comment content, count in your favour? LOL PDC 2008 has been pretty good this year, especially thinking back to 2003. Sure we got the infamous "Geeks baring gifts" Aero promises, but nothing more came from it sadly!

The new taskbar is especially interesting, as its been the least updated element of windows coming back from Windows 95!

#441 Alex Khristov on 31 Oct 2008 - 01:03

#447 KPark214 on 31 Oct 2008 - 02:22

Hey I had te live blog on when windows 7 was actually annouced. I tried getting my answer on the blog but for some strange reason it didn't work to well. It looks very cool and sexy for being a differnet form of vista. I like vista but this will be slim lined and have more of a chance to be installed onto an older computer then vista ever will.

#448 djeter on 31 Oct 2008 - 02:22

Cool, I like!

#449 crewxp on 31 Oct 2008 - 02:59

Windows 7 would be pretty sweet (though I don't have a touchscreen to play with).
And maybe that HDD will finally persuade me to back up my docs.

<Random Comment Goes Here>

Kinda disappointed to see that they're doing Windows 7 in multiple flavours (Ultimate, Home Premium etc). was hoping it would just be a Pro and Home versions again. Hopefully they'll at least cut down the number of different releases to something a little more realistic...

Still, great article on Windows 7 earlier!
Hope I win!

Many thanks again for all of your entertainment.

5. Talk with other via Neowin's IRC channel.
6. Always be updated with news about softwares and games.
7. Have a Community Blog section.
