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...

Not RTM?
I agree. Pirate all you want. But keep a stable OS.
I'm having issues with random BSODs. I'm not sure why, but hopefully it'll be fixed in the release. (I think it's due to some overly sensitive sensors)

Windows 7 RTM? Well, the only method would be pirated which is ughhhh... Plus, my laptop is soon breaking down so will buy Win7 when I get money for a new laptop...

Uh... Getting Windows 7 RTM via the legit channels isn't that hard.
MSDN, TechNet and MSDN-AA had their chance of getting 7 since the beginning of August. That aside, you can get the legit Windows 7 even if you don't have access to TechNet, MSDN or MSDN-AA by attending some of Microsoft's Windows 7/Server 2008 R2 Launch events in the US.

Meh, broke down and got the RTM. Fuck waiting 'till retail. Shit rocks.

Oh, I meant getting the full version legally. And I have been using RC1 on and off, currently using it since my XP disc doesn't work anymore and needed to re-format.
Those events, what thing are you talking about? A chance to buy the full version? Or getting it for free? (<- doubt it)
