Hi, I have a question, if I install this on my laptop then if sometime in the future I want to install it on my desktop, can I? With this version will I just be able to remove/uninstall it from the laptop and install it on my desktop? Or is this like the OEM version where once you install it on a pc, you can't move it some where else later?

Thanks

There still hasn't been an answer from most of those who have gotten Vista as to whether they were doing both the Vista and Office offers. So has anyone gotten it who did both offers?

(Sorry for the nagging. Just anxious to get my Vista and wondering if it's only those who just did the Vista offer who are getting it now.)

you're not nagging. i did both offers, didn't send in my w-9 and i'm in the same boat as you. i'll post if i get anything!

sweet... im in the Washington DC area and i got mine today :) Yay!! Guess i'll be formatting this weekend and installing a fresh and clean and legal Vista :). I already got Office 2007 so i'm cool there :)

What computers will I be able to control with remote desktop? can I do the windows XP computer I have over a wireless internet connection from my laptop. I know you have the option to RD on XP. I remember on my home edition you can allow the viewing but can't control. Will I be able to control an XP computer from Vista?

my debate right now is should i buy the ultimate upgrade or just purchase home premium separate. I really dont need ultimate on my tablet and am planning to build a computer this summer.

I heard once you upgrade to ultimate, your license will be an OEM one, so you're pretty much screwed if you plan to install it elsewhere later on. Not sure if it's true or not.

Any word on when and how we will be getting our copies of Office 2007? The last I heard, we will have to download it and we will be receiving our keys in the mail. Is this correct? I haven't heard anything about this lately.

dude, read about 1 page back and you'll see that Office is a download, Vista is physical media.

Nothing here, but I am getting Office and Vista ...to be honest, I am no rush, it's like like I don't have both already :yes:

Well, I got a bit of bad news for those who did both the Vista and Office offers. I e-mailed support today to make sure they got my W-9 and if my order had shipped. Just got a response a few hours ago:

Dear Steve:

Thank you for your email. Let me begin by apologizing for our delay. This campaign has been even more popular than we anticipated.

I checked the system and verified that we have received your W-9. You are slated for the first batch of shipments. The materials are currently being prepared in our warehouse for shipment. We currently estimate that we will begin shipping by the end of next week ? provided there are no delays. Please look for your software within 7 to 14 days.

If you have any additional questions or concerns, please let me know. Have a great day.

Sincerely,

Joe

In response, I wrote back and said that others had already begun receiving their copies of Vista. Just got a reply to that e-mail as well:Dear Steve:

Folks who only are receiving one of the items were processed first because they didn?t require a completed W-9. The folks, such as yourself, who are receiving both, had to wait until we received the W-9. The products will be shipped to your together.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Thanks again,

Joe

So, this was my fear. It sounds like it may be a week or two by time we get our copies. And that means no Vista prior to release for us.

Is that really so bad? It cost you nothing monetarily and only your time viewing some presentations.

I understand the anxiousness of receiving the freebies, but who cares if someone walks in to a store and drops a few hundred on the software and you receive it after him for free? :cool:

    • The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair
