no, lol. stores should not have been supporting win7 at all prior to release. if they were setting up the beta or RC or anything like that they were doing their own cowboy services, and was isolated to a few stores that had the unfortunate management to let it happen.

i thank Best Buy because i received this fine software as part of an promotion/accommodation between Best Buy and Microsoft. essentially microsoft made 25,000 copies of windows 7 ultimate available to BB employees. all we had to do was take some quizzes between 9/1/09 and 10/1/09 on Expertzone (microsoft's retail rewards site) to become a "windows 7 expert". just some quizzes about the features of win 7. then just pay $10 shipping + tax. and the first 3000 received it ahead of the release date.
