How will you be obtaining Windows Vista?

[*John*]

I was just interested as to how everyone will be/already has obtained Windows Vista. Hopefully the results prove interesting (Y)

Personally, i'll be getting the Windows Vista Business retail version within the first week of February. I'll probably go to PC world and get it, so I voted for the first one :)

I already have Windows Vista Ultimate as a gift from the Windows Beta Team and several licenses for Windows Vista Business through MSDNAA.

I'm pretty sure I'll be buying a retail version but when do the copies actually hit the stores? I'm getting tired of staying in RC2.

[Off Topic - Kinda] Is it possible to dual boot 32bit XP on 1 hard drive and 64bit Vista on another hard drive? If it is then I can whack in a SATA and install it on my machine!

[Lawrens]

Through buying a new computer or laptop, that's the time when I'll upgrade to vista, while I don't mind upgrading to it, I just don't think it's worth the money. :)
