Get it from newegg. Shop around. It's a great deal for Americans. The XP emulation...why do you need that? You running a proprietary software for a business? What are you running that can't run in compatibility mode?

Basically, I'm getting Windows 7(fresh install) with every feature I would ever use, for 49.99.

How would you rate the deal I'm getting?

I might need my old crap to work for some of my ongoing (or future) thesis stuff, and for certain old games, as I already mentioned.

And neweggs cheapest option (Buy Vista, get 7 for free) is still 110 dollars without expenses, so the situation didn't really improve. Meh, I can probably get one with a student license eventually - and I'm not buying anything from Microsoft without some hands-on testing, anyway.

As for your deal: Since you seem to be content with whatever W7 is at the moment, and the price will jump soon - could be worse, I suppose. :p
