If you use the MSDN Academic Alliance (MSDNAA) to get free Microsoft software from your 'education institute' (I get XP free from my University), then there is an announcement regarding Vista:
"Attention MSDN Academic Alliance Members
Hello MSDN AA administrators and thank you for your interest in Windows
Vista! We are pleased to announce that Windows Vista Business Edition will
be included in your MSDN AA subscription shipment in January 2007, and is
expected to be posted here by December 1, 2006."
Business Edition. I would have preferred Ultimate, or at least Home Premium! Why can't we get the version available to the rest of the MSDN network??
Sorry, I was relying on this to get my copy of Vista, and all we get is this . Now if I want Ultimate, I have to choose between a PS3 and Vista .
