We already have it at work.

Talk about MacOS

we have the RC2 so it's not the complete final release but it may as well be.

the release to market version has been available since mid december last year as a download for businesses with an SA / 'Select' agreement and on SA / 'Select' media since the middle of jan- first impressions were nothing fancy, once you turn off all the graphical fancy bits and over the top security measures you wind up with pritty much windows XP again. i cant see major businesses deploying this in great numbers for many months to come.
vista will also be a lot more difficult to copy for the business (ulimate-without activation) version

We've got it at work also .. Grabbed a copy and have been running it at home for a while now.

2Gb of RAM is what you want for it to run smoothly, including games.

Of course to get that price you need to buy a fully assembled PC right , otherwise Storm could get in a lot of trouble...

hah, yeah probably not the best thing to do... advertise OEM copies of software without having to buy a computer to get it.

Reminds me of when Austin Computers got busted all those years back.
