Actually, you could just buy vista ultimate for by a certain date and get the free upgrade to 7. Hell of a lot cheaper.

But then you wouldn't be able to re-format as many times as you'd like, right?
And agreed with all of you, many pirated OS's are just bad, the only reason why I went went with Vista Ultimate for a while was because a guy I know was able to lend me a version, and Win7 because I used the RC1. When I get win7 it'll be a working one for when I get a new laptop...

Only thing stopping me from switching to Win 7 RC right now is I'm a bit iffy on my RAID card drivers for 64 bit Win 7. I also ran into some issues with MPC, but that was fixed when I stopped trying to use 64 bit codecs.
I can live with Vista Ultimate for awhile until I see some tested and proven Win 7 drivers for my RAID card. Other than that, I've had 0 issues on my other PCs with Win 7.
I don't pirate OSes either, at least I know it'll work if I buy it. I'll definitely be purchasing a full version of whichever one I get for reformatting and other purposes.

just wait for the actual release and youll be able to get OEM copies(without the manual) for much cheaper
