Windows Vista Ultimate Upgrade £49.99 (+VAT) at Makro


£57.48

-151°

FOUND BY: megah0 4 weeks, 2 days ago

STARTS: 26/10/2009   EXPIRES: 26/11/2009

Wandering round my local branch (halesowen) and I spot this on the shelf.

Home Premium was also £49.99 and Home Basic £44.99 (both plus VAT)

Seems a bargain to me if you still need/want Vista.

Long live Mac. As for Windows, enjoy your random freezes, lock-ups, need for extra software, blue screens and viruses!

I must be a lone voice in saying I like Vista! More interesting/useful than XP and we've been running it very happily in our office since launch

Windows 7... not tried it and won't bother for a while.

As for Mac... well that is what I personally choose

Have you actually used Vista?!?! Only asking because I too was a hater... until I used it They have patched it and its now running happily on all three of my machines. Dont get me wrong, XP was good (COMPARED TO 98 WHAT WOULDN'T BE??), but I just think this whole "Vista is...." is a bit of a bandwagon with few people ACTUALLY giving a qualified opinion

I see Vista is somewhat unpopular with the cold voting masses then lol.

Compared to the prices for it on the internet its a bargain, obviously not for some though.
