I am a student at the University of Iowa. Like most colleges/universities around the country if not the globe they get to sell windows software at greatly reduced prices. If i were to buy XP it would cost my $6.
I haven't had to buy anything yet which means i will be able to buy office 2007 and Vista when they get it (you can only buy each one once as far as i know). I emailed them to see when those will be available and they said "should be later February" (right around launch time right?). I also asked them which version of Vista it would be and he said "right now it looks like it will most likely be enterprise".
I know there have been a lot of threads on OC.com about the various versions and i checked out MS.com here but I'm still a little unclear as to what this all means. I would love to get a legit copy of Vista for $6 but frankly i don't want a hampered OS and am wondering essentially what all this mumbo-jumbo means in layman's terms. When it comes to computers i can hold my own on the hardware end but the software often eludes me. Any help would be appreciated.
